The organization positions itself as a platinum open access press and is a full member of the Association of University Presses, underscoring its commitment to rigorous scholarship and open dissemination. Though small in size, MCUP contributes to its field by publishing content that aligns with the Marine Corps’ professional reading program and by supporting diverse viewpoints within its areas of interest.
