Hopkins Fulfillment Services will distribute Wayne State University Press, effective October 1. Wayne State University Press is also adopting Hopkins Press's proprietary title management system, Allbooks.
Wayne State University Press director Stephanie Williams said, "This move will update the press's systems and provide enhanced, accessible data about our business. HFS updates our ability to provide seamless first-class customer service informed by global best practices. We are deeply excited about the ways working with HFS will expand what our small staff can do in supporting our thousands of authors and books."
Johns Hopkins University Press executive director Barbara Kline Pope said, "We have long admired [Wayne State University Press's] lists in a wide range of areas including African American studies and Judaica and their commitment to the study of the Great Lakes region."
