Cambridge University Press Australia and New Zealand

The Australian Branch was established in 1969, and the Press’s Melbourne-based headquarters is the hub of a modern publishing operation comprising all stages of editorial, design and production, marketing, sales and distribution. Its main territory of Australia and New Zealand is spread over five time zones and the Branch is also a point of contact for customers in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and the other Pacific Islands.

The Branch is now Australia’s leading academic press, promoting and distributing the entire Cambridge list and, with over 1,000 authors based in Australia and New Zealand, it is the Press's third largest source of international authors.

In recent years the Branch has also been increasingly active in local school-book publishing and has accelerated its list-building by some strategic acquisitions.
All Press publications, regardless of their originating office, are marketed and distributed by the Branch. Teams of representatives and agents sell the whole range of Press publications to university and general bookshops, to educational and library suppliers and to primary and secondary schools.
