About ABC-CLIO
ABC-CLIO is a closely held publisher of
educational and academic reference products. The company focuses on history and
social studies resources for scholars, students, teachers, and librarians
at universities and secondary schools.
The company was founded in 1953
by Eric Boehm and is a second-generation family company, headed today by Ron
Boehm. ABC-CLIO's headquarters are located in Santa Barbara, California,
with branch offices in Broomfield, Colorado and Oxford, England.
ABC-CLIO's reference books have won multiple awards from
Library Journal, Choice, and Booklist. ABC-CLIO's flagship databases,
America:
History and Life and Historical Abstracts, are both mainstays of bibliographic
research for historians.
As a company, ABC-CLIO takes pride in constantly
reinventing itself. This reinvention requires experimentation at a time when
there are many unresolved issues and new uncertainties in the publishing and
reference industries. At the same time, today's
technologies provide the opportunity to employ new paradigms and new business
models
for innovation that can positively impact history scholarship and education.
