MUSE to offer Spanish-language Books
Project MUSE is pleased to announce a partnership with UNEBOOK.ES to offer ebooks from publishers based in Spain and Latin America to the Project MUSE library market worldwide.

UNE (Unión de Editoriales Universitarias Españolas) is the association of university presses and research centers in Spain. Formed in 1987 and based in Madrid, UNE has 69 members, all of which are non-profit cultural organizations.


MUSE expects to launch the UNE Book Collections on MUSE in spring of 2016, with an initial offering of approximately 3,000 front and backlist titles from more than 20 UNE member presses. More details on the available titles and collections will be announced in the coming months.


UNE has been working for almost 30 years in the promotion and dissemination of academic content in the Spanish language. Now, with its UNEBOOK project, it has brought together in one place most of the digital production of its 69 members, and looks forward to making this available to libraries through Project MUSE.

MUSE INASP Subscribers Graduate!
MUSE has worked with library consortia within the INASP program for developing countries since 2008. It is especially gratifying to learn that five consortia are "graduating" out of the INASP program and MUSE congratulates the five consortia for this achievement:
  • El Salvador 
  • Ghana
  • Honduras
  • Uganda
  • Zimbabwe
These consortia are “graduating” out of the INASP program and will work directly with Project MUSE for the 2016 subscription year and beyond. This is the first round of graduations and MUSE is very proud to be a part of their success.
