Our Story

Through generous funding and support of the administration at the Community College of Baltimore County, Compass Press is only the second literary press housed at a community college in the United States. We will begin accepting submissions in late 2023 and plan to publish one title per year, beginning in 2024. Our mission is simple: to provide a forum for the dissemination of quality literary works, similar to a university press.

 

Our main criterium is quality; subject matter is wide open. But all things being equal, we gravitate toward stories that are reflective of the diversity we experience and celebrate at CCBC.
