History

[edit]

The press was founded in 2000 as a "pedagogical center" that issued between three and five books annually. In 2014, Clemson University Press grew substantially by signing a "transatlantic publishing partnership" with Liverpool University Press: Under the terms of this deal, Clemson University Press will scout out and acquire books, while Liverpool University Press oversee the production, distribution, and marketing of the publications.[2] In 2023, the press became a distribution client of the University of North Carolina Press's Longleaf Services.[4]
