Sheffield has joined forces with the universities of Leeds and York to establish the White Rose University Press (WRUP)universitypress.whiterose.ac.uk which opened for submissions this week.

It will publish peer-reviewed academic papers, books, textbooks, and conference literature from across the academic community both in the UK and internationally. Online access to all the published material is free to all readers.
