Oxford University Press completed the acquisition of Karger Publishers.

Oxford University Press, the publishing house of the University of Oxford, and the largest university press in the world, completed the acquisition of Karger Publishers, a Basel-based academic publisher of scientific and medical journals and books. Financial terms were not disclosed. “I want to extend a very warm welcome to the Karger team, as well as their editors, authors, and customers. OUP is a department of the University of Oxford and one of the largest and oldest university press publishers in the world. This acquisition marks a significant moment in the history of our two organizations, underpinned by our joint publishing expertise, reputation for quality, and shared commitment to scholarly integrity,” Nigel Portwood, Oxford University Press CEO.
