ABC-CLIO Information

For more than 60 years, ABC-CLIO has delivered award-winning collections of digital and print resources. Our focus is on curriculum and reference materials, as well as professional development for librarians in secondary education, higher education, and public libraries. Our mission is to support educators and librarians in their work to foster 21st-century skills, independent critical thinking, and genuine exploration and understanding of the complex issues of our world—past, present, and future. Partnering with leading scholars and educators, we offer four well-respected imprints (ABC-CLIO, Greenwood, Praeger, Libraries Unlimited/Linworth) that provide high-quality, authoritative online resources, books, eBooks, and magazines on topics spanning the social sciences, humanities, and professional librarianship. ABC-CLIO seeks individuals who thrive in a collaborative, collegial, and challenging work environment which rewards initiative, critical thinking, and collective problem solving. We promote creative engagement, the desire to make a difference in our industry and professions, and the pursuit of knowledge and lifelong learning. ABC-CLIO is owned by Bloomsbury Publishing, a leading independent publishing house. In common with ABC-CLIO, Bloomsbury is a publisher with lifelong learning at the heart of the business, with a philosophy based on digital first and innovation. Bloomsbury publishes works of excellence and originality to inspire, educate and inform, and believes that intellectual curiosity and educational achievement go hand-in-hand.
