History
Fordham University Press not only represents and uphold the values and traditions of the University itself but also furthers those values and traditions through the dissemination of scholarly research and ideas. The Press publishes boundary-breaking print and digital books that bring recognition to itself, the University, and authors while balancing the need to publish in new formats and work collaboratively on and off campus. Its regional imprint, Empire State Editions, and location in New York City's Lincoln Center neighborhood reinforce the university's motto, New York is My Campus, Fordham is My School.
Fordham University Press, established in 1907, the seventh oldest university press in the country and the nation's oldest Catholic university press, is the not-for-profit publishing arm of the University. Dr. James Walsh, Dean of Fordham's School of Medicine, having gained the approval of the University, published the first title of the Press, The Makers of Modern Medicine, in 1907. Later that year, the Fordham University catalog announced the establishment of Fordham University Press as a new department under the temporary supervision of the Medical School at the Rose Hill campus. All titles published under Dr. Walsh's leadership concerned medicine, science, history, and religion.
