Utah State U. Press to Merge With Library

Utah State University Press, whose future looked uncertain 
earlier this year, will merge with the university's library, Utah 
State announced on Monday. The move "will result in significant 
savings," said Richard Clement, dean of libraries, and move Utah 
State down the path toward digital publishing and open access 
already taken by the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor when it 
reorganized its press as a unit of the library.
