==Objectives==<br />
AUP makes use of the [[peer review]]ing system: submissions are assessed by an [[editorial board]] of expert scholars from Dutch and Flemish universities. AUP explicitly supports [[open access]], and combines in its publishing policy the use of repositories and print-on-demand provisions with traditional printing. AUP is one of thirteen publishers to participate in the [[Knowledge Unlatched]] pilot, a global library consortium approach to funding [[open access book]]s.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.knowledgeunlatched.org/good-for/publishers/|title=Good for publishers|work=knowledgeunlatched.org}}</ref><br />
<br />
==Areas of publishing==<br />
AUP's stocklist currently comprises different academic disciplines, including language and literature, archaeology, management studies, cultural studies, film and media, art and art history, music and theatre studies, as well as social sciences, ranging from migration and integration to Asian studies. In addition, AUP is active in educational publishing for high school and higher education, as well as popular science.<br />
<br />
==Imprints==<br />
Various imprints are linked to AUP. Vossiuspers UvA publishes the works of the University of Amsterdam’s scholars and all inaugural lectures of UvA professors. In 2004, under the name Pallas Publications, AUP began a new service allowing authors, institutions, and organizations to have their academic publications produced, distributed, and promoted.<br />
