    Oxford University Press (OUP)

    Oxford University Press

    Given a rivalry with Cambridge that dates back to the thirteenth century, perhaps it’s no wonder Oxford also claims its University Press is the oldest in the world, citing origins dating back to 1478; presumably the year the first printing presses were set up (though the actual entity of a “university press” apparently came later).

    OUP also claims to be the world’s largest university press with the widest global presence.

    The New York outpost of OUP was established in 1896 and, in the 1920s, began publishing its list. Notably, its first original publication won the 1926 Pulitzer Prize.

    Today, Oxford University Press claims a total of fifteen Pulitzer Prize-winning titles and publishes such acclaimed authors as historian Alan Brinkley, ethnologist Richard Dawkins, journalist and speechwriter William Safire, literary critic and educator Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and environmentalist Rachel Carson.

    Princeton University Press

    Though it was begun in 1905 by a Princeton graduate, Whitney Darrow, and got its start printing the school’s Alumni Weekly, unlike most university presses owned or financially supported by universities, Princeton University Press (PUP) has always been privately owned and controlled.

    PUP began in rented quarters above Marsh’s drugstore on Nassau Street in Princeton, New Jersey. Charles Scribner, a trustee of the University and a New York book publisher, contributed funds and land to the start-up.

    Notably, PUP authors include Theodore Roosevelt, Joseph Campbell, and Stephen Hawking. Princeton University Press’s single most popular book is The I Ching, translated by Wilhelm / Baynes, which has more than 900,000 copies in print.
