SUPPORT THE PRESS

The mission of the Friends of the Press is to promote and support the University of Nebraska Press through the development of financial resources and to heighten awareness of the role the Press plays in the dissemination of scholarly research and literature, and in the promotion of publishing arts.

Sponsor an individual book

A wonderful way to support the work of the Press is through underwriting the production costs of an individual book. Such gifts can allow the Press to add color photography to a book or to price it at a lower cost so that it can reach its intended audience. Here are several upcoming Press books that need underwriting:

Wally Yonamine: The Man Who Changed Japanese Baseball
The Complete Letters of Henry James, 1872-1876
To a Distant Day: The Rocket Pioneers

Contribute to subject funds

The Press publishes in the fields of Native studies, Jewish studies, literature, military history, and agriculture and has a series in each of these areas that requires ongoing support.

Support a book series

Several series that need underwriting are:

At Table
Indigenous Education
Our Sustainable Future
Outward Odyssey: A People's History of Spaceflight
