...fall announcement of the University Press shows very clearly the efficient management and rapid growth of the Press since its foundation in 1913. The plant in the basement of University Hall has been considerably enlarged and will make possible a greater output of books during the winter.

Fashions spread so fast that it will perhaps not be long before a printing press will seem as indispensable to an ambitious university as a gymnasium, and the literary "output" will become as important as the number of students in attendance. The trade publishers will not suffer, for universities are not given to producing "best sellers," and most of their books a publisher could not well afford to bandle.
