University of British Columbia. Publications Centre

1961-1971

The UBC Publications Centre has been the publishing department of the University since 1961. Three journals, Canadian Literature, B.C. Studies, and Pacific Affairs, were the motivation behind founding a Publications Centre. James Banham, Information Officer at the University, who was Acting Executive Director of the Centre during the 1960s, initially oversaw the administration of the Publications Centre. The Publications Centre became UBC Press in March 1971.
