August 25, 2011

KWS Publishers is a publisher of scholarly, reference, and new fiction works founded in 2009 and based in Chicago, with an office in London (www.kwspub.com) Their titles are used as both reference tools for students and academic reference works for libraries. KWS has also developed a nice niche of revising and updating lost and out-of-print editions— important books originally published by museums, university presses, and trade and academic publishers. This is the third publishing venture started by the founders of KWS Publishing, having previously founded St. James Press and Fitzroy Dearborn Publishers. These earlier publishing entities won numerous industry accolades and awards for their work. KWS books was previously distributed in all world markets by the University of Chicago Press.
