Dalkey Archive Press is a small publishing house focused on fiction, poetry, and literary criticism, emphasizing lesser known, often avant‑garde works and aiming to keep these titles in print for educational and cultural value. Based in Champaign, Illinois, with roots in Chicago, the press was founded in 1984 and has evolved from reprinting works featured in its associated literary magazine to publishing original and republished material from a diverse range of authors, including translations. Its position within the book and periodical publishing industry centers on modernist and postmodernist literary fiction, offering titles that may be overlooked by mainstream channels and serving readers, scholars, and libraries seeking enduring literary significance. A notable development in its recent history is the acquisition by Deep Vellum at the end of 2020, which the organization references as a step to preserve the press as a distinct imprint while continuing its editorial mission.
