African Minds publishes predominantly in the social sciences and its authors are typically African academics or those with a close affinity with the continent. They offer innovative approaches to those frustrated by a lack of support from traditional publishers. At African Minds the emphasis is less on the commercial viability of publications than on fostering access, openness and debate in the pursuit of growing and deepening the African knowledge base.

African Minds is a member of the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association (OASPA) and the Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers (ALPSP), and it fulfils all membership criteria for both associations, including those related to the peer review of the books it publishes.

African Stuff

storytimeafrica.com

The company AFRICAN STUFF was born out of the incredible humorous artwork called WILDSIDE, by internationally known landscape artist Rose Rigden. The owner of AFRICAN STUFF, Nigel Gilbert discovered WILDSIDE while on holiday in Victoria Falls in 1996. For her own pleasure, Rose has painted 8 images, had them put onto postcards for tourists and when Nigel saw them, he just knew that this was going to be fun.

After WILDSIDE, Rose illustrated four more children’s books for AFRICAN STUFF. The distribution of the quirky STORYTIME AFRICA, also wildlife related children’s books, was a natural fit.
