The European office of Princeton University Press celebrated its twentieth anniversary in 2019. Its presence has given us the opportunity to expand the Press’s scholarly connections and visibility in Europe through the expansion of our author pool and through the increased media coverage and sales we are able to achieve. Originally consisting of three people, the European office has now grown to fifteen, encompassing editorial, audio and translation rights, and publicity. Our European editors cover the humanities, social sciences, and sciences, and travel widely throughout the continent. Our publicity team is in touch with media across Europe as well as the
Middle East, Africa, and South Asia. The majority of our translation rights are handled through the European office, and we visit publishers and attend book fairs from this location. The digital and audio publisher is also based in Europe and oversees the Press’s audio list.
The European office also works with members of the University Press Group, who look after sales throughout Europe. Our books are distributed in the region by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
European Advisory Board
The 24-member European Advisory Board is a vital source of insight and advice on developments in the European academy and publishing, and serves as a sounding board for new editorial initiatives and discipline specific book projects. Board members also help raise awareness of the Press within the broad community of academic authors and scholarly publishing in Europe.
