UNM Press fights for survival amid layoffs, budget cuts - Associated Press

The largest publisher of books in New Mexico is struggling for survival amid layoffs and budget cuts. The Albuquerque Journal reports (https://goo.gl/eiX5za) the University of New Mexico Press has in recent months cut its staff by about a quarter and made plans to reduce its annual output by about one-third. UNM Press' director of seven years, John Byram, left last month after his contract was not renewed. University leaders are considering a plan to fold the press into the school's library division and outsource its warehouse functions. http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/education/article/UNM-Press-fights-for-survival-amid-layoffs-11946384.php
