Well, Sandy - if you were answering my comment, you misfired.
You replaced my word "distribution" by your "publishing".
A University is a king on its own territory and has no facilities to
distribute outside. It has to deal with distributors. It will cost
cheaper but not that much.
I remember that before I was printing a book I was offered by a
distributor to give up my rights for 10% of expected revenue, but when
I printed it on my own I was offered just a bit more - 20%.
