RavenSpace Logo


RavenSpace is an innovative initiative for digital publishing in Indigenous studies, created by UBC Press in partnership with the University of Washington Press, Indigenous and technology organizations, libraries, and museums. It provides a new model and online platform for collaborative authorship and publishing, meeting the standards of peer-reviewed academic publishing and respecting Indigenous protocols for the ownership, access, and use of cultural heritage and traditional knowledge. Designed to engage multiple audiences, RavenSpace will offer tools for authors, educators, students, knowledge holders, and scholars.

The inaugural book in the RavenSpace platform, As I Remember It: Teachings (Ɂəms tɑɁɑw) from the Life of a Sliammon Elder, is available now.

This publishing initiative is made possible thanks to support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

Visit the RavenSpace website for more information about the project and to publish with RavenSpace.
