Poetry Books and Chapbooks
UDP publishes more than 25 titles per year of new poetry, translation, experimental prose, and artist books. Many of our titles fall within the specific series outline below; we also publish first books by American poets and poetry in translation. Our full-length books are usually printed in runs of 500 to 1,000. Our chapbooks are printed and bound at the UDP workshop in editions of 400 or more. Browse our catalogue.

Dossier
UDP’s Dossier Series was founded in 2008 to expand the formal scope of the press. Dossier publications don’t share a single genre or form—poetry, essay, criticism, interview, artist book, polemical text—but rather an investigative impulse. Series Editor: Anna Moschovakis. View all Dossier titles.

Eastern European Poets Series
Initiated in 2003, the Eastern European Poets Series is dedicated to publishing the work of contemporary Eastern European poets in translation (often in bilingual editions), emigré authors who write in English, and influential poets of the Eastern European avant garde whose work is not widely available in English translation. Series Editor: Matvei Yankelevich. View all EEPS titles.

Lost Literature
The Lost Literature Series is dedicated to publishing neglected works of 20th century poetry, prose, and important & resonant works that fall outside those confines. Series Editor: Ryan Haley. View all Lost Lit titles.

6×6
Every issue of 6×6 contains six poets who are each given six pages to present their work; we encourage projects that specifically explore the format. 6×6 publishes poets of all ages from all over the U.S. and abroad, and we aim to include a poet in translation in every issue. We put out three issues a year, and submissions are encouraged year round. 6×6 Editors: Rotating editorial staff comprised of UDP Collective members and Volunteers. View 6×6 issues.

Emergency Playscripts
The Emergency Playscripts publishes one to two new texts per year, choosing scripts that can expand the practice of theater. The series has its roots in the Emergency Gazette (1999-2002), a free biweekly broadsheet on performance. Series Editors: Yelena Gluzman and Matvei Yankelevich. View all Emergency titles.

Emergency INDEX
An annual print publication documenting new performance in the words of its creators. Because performance transcends disciplinary boundaries, INDEX includes performances of every kind, from any genre, made anywhere in the world for any purpose.  Series Editors: Yelena Gluzman and Matvei Yankelevich. View the Emergency INDEX website.

Paperless Book Department
The Paperless Book Department publishes and distributes books which escape attempts to keep them in one place. Though the term “paperless” has been more frequently associated with the possibilities of digital storage of language, in this case “paperless” is meant to address the basic assumptions and structures of book distribution and its relationship to how we read.
