STM societies with book packages I know of offhand:

SPIE
AGU (published through Wiley)
AIAA
AMS
IEEE (were Wiley, I think, and now maybe only on Xplore?)
ACM (newish with Morgan & Claypool)
SIAM
IOP (newish with Morgan & Claypool)
IET

Assuming you don't want to include conference proceedings.

Hello, liblicense-l colleagues.  Here some assumptions arising several
times at ALA-Boston last week.  I realized I don't have enough depth
to validate them (or not).

1.       Assumption:  STM societies don’t publish many (if any?)
books, mostly journals.

2.       Assumption:  HSS societies do publish books/monographs, as
well as journals.

3.       Assumption:  Societies (both STM and HSS) don’t outsource
book publishing to commercial publishers the way they do journals
because there isn’t a big enough margin in it for publishers to want
to do it.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Best regards, Ann Okerson
