To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Its mission may be fairly described as university ex- tension work of the finest kind. It is probable that as the press grows it will reflect credit upon the university where it is located, and may even add to its renown as a seat of learning. It is prac- tically certain that through its work the press will bring into University Presses 29 prominence writers whose names would otherwise have been known to but few. It is inevitable that by publishing works of instruc- tors and assistant professor...s the press will aid materially in secur- ing for them, in addition to this larger recognition, earlier promo- tion. These results are pleasant to contemplate, but they do not in themselves and alone justify the establishment and maintenance of a university press. Such an or- ganization may incidentally bene- fit its own university, but its primary duty is to the world of scholarship and letters, and to the public at large, rather than to any single institution. It follows naturally, however, that the higher the service the press renders to the world the greater will be the benefits resulting from its opera- tions to its own university.
