We are the world's largest university press. That means we serve the academic community as no other publisher can. We work in partnership with institutions and learned societies to bring a world of knowledge to the fingertips of students and researchers worldwide.
The goal is impact. Together with our academic communities, we curate and connect the ideas that push their fields forward, enabling a virtuous cycle of learning, discovery, and scholarship.
And because we are part of the academic community and guided in everything we do by our mission, we reinvest in our people, our publishing, and the world-leading research institution of which we are part.
For more than 100 years, OUP Music has also played a distinctive role in musical life, publishing works that have shaped concert halls, churches, schools, universities, and communities around the world. Our catalogue includes many of the most influential composers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, including Ralph Vaughan Williams, William Walton, William Mathias, John Rutter, Bob Chilcott, Cecilia McDowall, Sarah Quartel, Reena Esmail, and many others. Today, we combine that rich heritage with a commitment to championing composers, reaching new audiences, and ensuring great music continues to inspire performers and listeners worldwide.
