Mission
Prospect Press was founded to serve the Information Systems curriculum by publishing essential and innovative textbooks across the curriculum including introductory, emerging, elective, and upper-level courses. Prospect Press offers reasonable prices by selling directly to students. Prospect Press provides tight relationships between authors, publisher, and adopters that larger publishers are unable to offer.
