AUP publishes 33 academic journals, of which 11 are available in direct Open Access. In 2020, AUP published over 120 academic monographs and edited collections.
AUP has long been an initiator and supporter of sustainable Open Access publishing and releases many academic books and journals for Open Access directly after publication.
