The Cambridge University Press Australia and New Zealand Branch is now Australia’s leading academic press, promoting and distributing the entire Cambridge list and, with over 1,000 authors based in Australia and New Zealand, it is the Press's third largest source of international authors.

In recent years the Branch has also been increasingly active in local school-book publishing and has accelerated its list-building by some strategic acquisitions.

All Press publications, regardless of their originating office, are marketed and distributed by the Branch. Teams of representatives and agents sell the whole range of Press publications to university and general bookshops, to educational and library suppliers and to primary and secondary schools.
