  • CLIR and NITLE Launch Anvil Academic Publishing
    Anvil Academic, a digital publisher for the humanities, will focus on publishing new forms of scholarship that cannot be adequately conveyed in the traditional monograph. The jointly developed title production system will be available for use by colleges, universities, libraries, and cultural institutions, which can use Anvil Academic to publish under their own imprints, contributing nothing more than editorial work.
