"Amsterdam University Press (AUP) had been acquired by the for-profit corporate publishing behemoth Taylor & Francis" – Martin Paul Eve: "What is a University Press?" doi.org/10.59348/paybh-98d21

What is a University Press?
I was having a pretty good week last week, until we got to the closing minutes of play. At that point, I learned that Amsterdam University Press (AUP) had been acquired by the for-profit corporate publishing behemoth Taylor & Francis. This is not really a surprise in some ways. AUP had been transformed into a private, for-profit enterprise in 2019.
