UP Week: WHY does your press #TeamUp? Happy University Press Week! Help us celebrate university presses November 10-14. Since 2012, members of the Association of University Presses have participated in an annual celebration of University Presses. This year's theme for UP Week is "Team UP," to celebrate the ways that university presses and their authors Team UP with a vast network of reviewers, booksellers, freelancers, translators, librarians, teachers, and students to advance knowledge and understanding.

Today's UP Week blog tour asks "WHY does your press #TeamUP?"

On the blog, @jacobflaws.bsky.social, author of SPACES OF TREBLINKA, discusses the importance of accessible scholarly work in our current media ecosystem.

I have a book cover! After years of work, "Survival at Treblinka: Geography, Gender, and Social Networks in Jewish Resistance" is available for pre-order. It will ship in March and the official release date is set for April 2026. I can't wait to share this important history and hear from readers!

Fascinating. Would love to hear how it goes. Let’s chat soon to debrief!

So if Trump issues an executive order suspending the Constitution now, each federal district judge would have to block that for their own district? So you could end with the Constituion suspended in parts of the country but not in others? #SCOTUS #Trump

Excited to be delivering this talk on 7/1!

On the 84th anniversary of Operation Barbarossa, I am reminded that throughout history, madmen at the helm with delusions of grandeur pay the costs of their blind ambition with the lives of both vocal supporters and those resisters dragged along along for the ride in equal measure.
