Warner on university presses
 

Warner 148: "University presses are [...] half professional and half public" ("mulish compromises")
 
"Their products are widely available to any stranger" yet "they also take care to maintain a close fit between their circulatory ambit and the private realm of the professions"
 
Thus, "[t]he world of strangers to whom this discourse circulates is a world in which strangers are either directly certified in advance by institutions and networks or indirectly limited by the distributional practices of the publisher"
