Five universities of different backgrounds are established in the country, the American University of Beirut, the University of Saint Joseph, the University of the Holy Spirit at Kaslik, the Lebanese University, and the Beirut Arab University. The study was intended to investigate the publishing program of each university and to examine the publications to determine the lines along which the publishing programs developed. Seven hypotheses were proposed to guide the study. They addressed particularly the relationship of the university publishing program to the governing body of the university, the policies concerning the number of titles published, the language and subject areas covered by the publications, and the policies and procedures for selecting manuscripts for publication. They also addressed the relationship of university publications to the scholarly activities of the faculty members, and to the total book production of the country. |
