University of Wales Press

The University of Wales Press () was founded in 1922 as a central service of the University of Wales. The press publishes academic journals and around seventy books a year in the English and Welsh languages on six general subjects: history, political philosophy and religious studies, Welsh and Celtic studies, literary studies, European studies and medieval studies. The press has a backlist of over 3,500 titles.

The main offices of the University of Wales Press are in Cardiff.

With the announcement in 2011 that the University of Wales would be functionally merged into Trinity Saint David, it was envisaged that the University of Wales Press would also be merged into the institution.

In September 2016 it was announced the Press would be forming a partnership with the Open Library of Humanities to convert the International Journal of Welsh Writing in English into a full open-access journal.
