The University of Toronto Press, Canada’s largest university publisher, has announced a strategic partnership with Canadian Science Publishing, a renowned independent science publisher. This collaboration aims to tackle pressing issues in modern scientific disciplines, such as Arctic science and climate change, biodiversity and conservation science, and the health of our oceans and aquatic ecosystems.

Aligned in our mission to connect ideas for a better world, this partnership will allow us to publish authoritative and impactful works that significantly contribute to contemporary scientific discourse.”

 

The books produced through this partnership will be available to both Canadian and international audiences, fostering a deeper understanding of the most pressing environmental issues of our time. Elaine Stott, CEO of Canadian Science Publishing, remarked, “This collaboration leverages the strengths of both organizations, extending the legacies of excellence at Canadian Science Publishing and the University of Toronto Press. Together, we continue our mission of advancing scientific understanding through high-quality publications.”

 

Canadian Science Publishing, established in 1929, publishes 22 international scientific journals across natural and physical sciences and engineering, including three open-access journals. The company partners with over 25 scientific societies to remove barriers and empower the international research community.

 

Founded in 1901, the University of Toronto Press publishes over 200 scholarly books, course books, and general-interest books annually in print and digital formats, as well as 45 journals. The Press also distributes for more than 200 publishers and imprints across North America and worldwide.
