Reference Service Press began in 1977, with a single financial aid book, and has grown into a successful niche publishing company specializing solely in the development of financial aid directories in any format. Today, we are committed to collecting, organizing, and disseminating--in print, on disk, on CD ROM, and online--the most current and accurate information available on scholarships, fellowships, loans, grants, awards, internships, and other types of funding opportunities.
To a large extent, we will continue to produce our financial aid products in print. Recently, in fact, we published several new print titles derived from information in our funding database that focus on specific subject areas:
Look at the RSP Financial Aid Products section of our web site for descriptions of these and all other Reference Service Press titles. Or, for a list of just the newest editions and titles to join RSP's line of award-winning publications, click here.
Increasingly, however, we will be expanding our electronic operations. We are currently in negotiations with a number of online services and we are now licensing parts of our database.
More electronic developments: Reference Servicee Press has joined the eBook revolution. We are issuing eBooks both on our own and in collaboration with other vendors.
When Phyllis Steckler (former president of Oryx Press) was asked to sum up the current reference marketplace in an issue of Library Journal, a few years ago, she observed: "There is no cessation of reference products, only more in alternate media." We think that pretty well describes our future direction as well!
