Abstract
The Drake Community Press is a collaborative publishing project involving students and faculty from a variety of disciplines along with a non-profit community partner with a compelling story to share. Over two years and eight production phases, campus and community participants create the content, format, design, promotion, and distribution plan for a high-quality publication that aims, through sales and advocacy, to advance the partner’s mission. In so doing, the Press creates an intentional framework of encounter— education as dialogue—in which participants negotiate across cultural and disciplinary boundaries as equal stakeholders with a shared purpose.
