Description
Summary:The university press production derives from research, teaching and dissemination activities undertaken at its campuses. This generates an offer of highly specialized editions, which results in a small number of potential readers, almost all researchers, professors and students from the university itself.

This text shows some alternatives that can be adopted by university bookstores in order to promote the reading of their publications.
