In spring of 2019 the University of New Orleans campus administration decided to move the university press into the library, both physically and administratively. This “arranged marriage” was approached by the affected parties with excitement and goodwill but also with some anxiety about how, exactly, the marriage would work.

We propose to share our initial steps toward collaboration and mutual understanding as a kind of case study in library-press partnership development. We will relate how we identified areas of shared interest and complementary expertise, and decided to launch our first real shared project: developing and delivering a team-taught course on journal publishing for the Spring 2021 semester. We will be wrapping up the first iteration of the course and sharing successes, pitfalls and products from this experience, including drafts of final products and student responses.

As part of a smaller-sized regional research university, with minimal staff on both sides, the human capacity of both parties is our most precious commodity. We believe that our story will be especially relevant to scholarly communications librarians and university press staff at under-resourced institutions who are seeking to strengthen their respective publishing services through mutually beneficial partnerships, even without a formal structural arrangement.
