Oxford University Press is the world's largest university press, familiar in over fifty countries worldwide for a diverse publishing programme that includes dictionaries, scholarly works, bibles, music, textbooks, and journals.
Oxford's long and illustrious history of publishing reference works began in 1884 with the publication of the first fascicle (section) of the Oxford English Dictionary, covering A-Ant.
The very first Oxford Companion - to English Literature - appeared in 1932 and gave birth to the now famous series of A-Z reference books that cover topics from Art to Wine.
Every year Oxford publishes many new dictionaries and reference books, and since the launch of Oxford Reference Online in 2002, we have been making more and more of them available online.
