Libraries are our partners in the world of scholarly and professional communications, and we invite librarians to learn more about Left Coast Press, Inc. publications. We think you'll find that our materials will be both requested and well used by your patrons. You'll also find that, as serials prices go through the roof, we've made a deliberate decision not to follow that trend.
Quality
All of our publications are of top scholarly quality, carefully reviewed by experts, well researched, and thoroughly referenced. We are participating in the Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Program. Our materials will make crucial contributions to library collections in several fields, including archaeology, anthropology, museum studies and practice, sociology, research methods, history and historic preservation, environmental studies and management, and several others. All of our books and journals are printed on acid-free paper that complies with the American National Standard for Information Sciences-Permanence of Paper for Printed Library Materials, and whenever feasible we use recycled paper that also meets these standards. Our hardcover editions are Smythe sewn for maximum durability and flexibility.
