Harvard University Press (HUP) is a publishing house established on January 13, 1913 as a division of Harvard University, and focused on academic publishing. In 2005, it published 220 new titles. It is a member of the Association of American University Presses. Its current director is William P. Sisler and the editor-in-chief is Susan Wallace Boehmer.
The press maintains offices in Cambridge, Massachusetts, near Harvard Square, and in London, England.
Notable HUP authors include Eudora Welty, Walter Benjamin, E. O. Wilson, John Rawls, Emily Dickinson, Stephen Jay Gould, Helen Vendler, and Carol Gilligan.
The Display Room in Harvard Square, dedicated to selling HUP publications, closed on 17 June 2009.[1] HUP has lent its name to the Harvard comma, because its house manual of style favors its use.
