CORNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS

Digital Platform Powered by Manifold

Cornell University Press, established in 1869 as the first American university press, shortly after the founding of the Cornell University itself, embodies and advances the university’s core values by disseminating fundamental and practical knowledge, while commanding its own distinct editorial profile. The Press, as part of a land-grant institution, is also dedicated to transforming research into publications that reach and benefit the wider public.

In order to help inform dialogues and promote understanding about antiracism and racial justice, Cornell University Press is making this collection of ebooks available for free through August 31, 2020.

Cornell University Press's Digital Platform is a dynamic space for hosting interactive content, crowdsourced peer review, and other digital intiatives.
