Southern Illinois University Press is the nonprofit book-publishing unit of Southern Illinois University. Unlike a commercial publisher, which focuses on publishing for popular audiences, we have a mission to publish works of scholarly, intellectual, or creative merit, often for our regional community. (See our most recent regional titles here.) Since its inception nearly 70 years ago, SIU Press has published more than 2,500 books, primarily in the humanities and the social sciences, and has made substantial contributions in a wide range of subject areas.
SIU Press supports SIU’s research mission by making a strong contribution to academic scholarship, providing educational opportunities, and disseminating information about our region, while building toward the future of digital content development and delivery. Your support will help us continue that tradition. Click the “Give Now” button at the top of the page to make your gift.
Our priority for this year is the SIU Press Student Internship Endowment Fund. This fund shall support paid internships or graduate assistantships through the University Press for SIU undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in pursuing a career in scholarly publishing. Students of any major are eligible.
