The University of the Philippines Press is the official publishing house for all constituent units of the UP system, and is the first university press in the country. We are mandated to encourage, publish, and disseminate scholarly, creative, and scientific works which commercial publishers would not ordinarily undertake to publish.

Since its establishment on March 16, 1965 the UP Press has published important, often groundbreaking, works by home scholars that represent distinct contributions to knowledge. Our titles have consistently won recognition from prestigious award-giving bodies including the Book of the Year award from the Manila Critics Circle, the Madrigal Gonzales Best First Book Award, and the Outstanding Book of the Year award from the National Academy of Science and Technology. Because of this achievement, we have thrice been cited Publisher of the Year by the Manila Critics Circle. This is in keeping with our vision of being the leading academic publishing house that sets the benchmark for academic, technical, and literary title. Under the direction of historian Dr. Maria Luisa Camagay, we remain steadfast in fulfilling our mission of making the best Philippine books available in the market.
