Information about print subscriptions
- All postage and handling is already included in the price of a print subscription.
- It is the policy of the University of Nebraska Press to charge the “individual” subscription rate if a subscription is paid for by a personal check or credit card. Otherwise, the institutional rate applies.
- Once a subscription order is placed, no cancellations are allowed.
- With a few exceptions, our print subscriptions are volume-based. That means your one-year subscription will consist of issues from the same volume. Unless you tell us specifically which volume you wish to subscribe to, we will determine the most logical volume, and, therefore, starting issue, for your subscription.
- Please notify us in advance of any address changes. When contacting us, provide both the old and new address.
- We will honor claims for missing or damaged issues for six months after the original mailing date of an issue. All claims should be sent to the University of Nebraska Press, not the journal’s editor or its related society. (The exception is Western American Literature. Both orders and claims must be directed to the Western Literature Association.)
Information about electronic subscriptions
- Most of the journals published by the University of Nebraska Press are available online on the Project MUSE platform.
- Libraries and other institutions may subscribe to the journals as part of a Project MUSE collection or as single title subscriptions. In either case, the subscription should be placed directly with Project MUSE or a library subscription agent.
- Many of UNP’s journals are participating in Project MUSE’s Subscribe to Open initiative for 2025. Visit the Project MUSE website for more information.
- Several of UNP’s titles are part of the JSTOR archive. Content is available to subscribing libraries three years after publication. Contact JSTOR for more information.
Information about back issues
- Postage and handling will be added to back issue orders.
- Allow up to 2 weeks for standard delivery to addresses in the US, although most will be delivered within 7 business days. Most standard international orders will be delivered within 8 weeks, but some may take longer. If you have concerns about a back issue order, please email us.
- Our standard shipping method for back issues delivered to US addresses is USPS Ground Advantage. We can provide tracking information on request, but it may take a few days for us to receive that information from our warehouse.
- As a general rule, orders shipped via our standard method cannot be considered “lost” until after 3 weeks in the US and 12 weeks outside the US.
- Expedited shipping and handling is available. Customers can choose “expedited” at checkout, and their orders will be shipped, most commonly, via FedEx Ground or FedEx International Economy. Faster options are available by calling us.
Information about taxes
UNP collects Nebraska sales tax and Canada’s GST on orders of print and electronic subscriptions and back issues. Our website is designed to collect sales tax on all orders to these jurisdictions based on address. If your organization has tax-exempt status in one of these jurisdictions and you will be paying with the organization’s credit card, please call us at 1-866-978-0295 to place your order. If you wish to pay by check on an account in the organization’s name, you may mail in your order with a copy of your tax exemption certificate.
Invoice payments
If you have an invoice for a journal purchase from the University of Nebraska Press, you may pay it online in our e-commerce system. Look for the invoice payment button near the top of your account page .(You will need to set up an account in the site the first time you visit it.) Please note that this is a secure payment portal only; it is unable to look up any information about your invoice. You will need to have your invoice number and the payment amount available to complete the transaction.
We regret that we are currently unable to process other types of invoices (e.g. advertising, permissions, production costs) issued by the University of Nebraska Press through this system. Call 402-472-3581 to make credit card payments for those types of invoices by phone.
