"Copyright or Copy Wrong: An Analysis of University Claims to Faculty Work," Communication and Law Policy, Volume 7 (Summer 2002): Number 3 (Pages 275-316.

About whether self-publishing is a threat, Pfund says university presses offer invisible services that authors would be hard-pressed to match on their own. He notes that university presses have the advantage of residing in academe's "gift economy," in which "thousands of hours of scholarly labor are often rewarded with little more than a modest press run, some reviews, and perfhaps a shot at tenure."
