Cita Press

Cita is a library and press devoted to publishing and promoting the long history (and future) of feminist literature. It is a collaborative labor of love between designers and writers that connects writing from the public domain and open source fonts, code, and images. While the work they have published so far is by women, Cita is interested in publishing work by writers whose genders have been historically marginalized in the publishing and literary landscape.
Vision and Mission: Through their library, outreach, and operations, Cita works to: Elevate the work of those who first addressed gender inequality; Use open source resources and actively credit them; Maintain content in open access platforms, licenses and formats; Give free access to feminist writing, scholarship, and design; Make visible and celebrate the work of contributors; Pair classic literature with contemporary open scholarship and design; Be committed to intersectionality; Be participatory, crowdsourced and open to new voices and collaborations.
FS Model: Model C, Pre-Approved Grant/Indirect Fiscal Sponsorship

Cita’s partnership with Educopia has allowed us to transition from a small volunteer operation to a staffed organization that works with contributors and partners from all over the world on a range of research and publication projects. Through Fiscal Sponsorship and Consulting, Educopia provides Cita with the infrastructure that makes our work possible and deep expertise that helps guide our approach and practices. We love Educopia!
