Overview
Overview
From 2010 to 2017, the press's publications were distributed by Rowman & Littlefield. Presently, the press operates in partnership with Rutgers University Press. While Bucknell University Press maintains editorial control over its own imprint, Rutgers pays for the cost of production and handles global distribution. Press has published more than 1,200 titles since 1968, with notable strengths in the fields of Iberian, Latin American, Irish, and interdisciplinary 18th-century studies. Nearly 30% of the press's titles published in 2024–2025 have received the American Library Association's Choice "highly recommended" rating. The press also runs an internship program. On September 4, 2025, Bucknell University provost Wendy F. Sternberg notified the Bucknell community that the university press would cease operations on June 30, 2026. Its funding would be redirected toward undergraduate education.
