Howard University Press was a publisher that was part of Howard University, founded in 1972. It closed in 2011, and a majority of its titles were acquired by Black Classic Press.
Update: A Press Release issued by Black Classic Press announced that despite HUP announcing the transfer of its titles and contracts to Black Classic Press in May 2011, the agreement was cancelled by Black Classic Press in October due to a lack of communication from Howard University representatives and their failure to return a signed agreement to BCP.
