Carolina Academic Press
Carolina Academic Press (also known as CAP) is an academic publisher of books and software. Since entering the legal education market in the late 1970s, Carolina Academic Press has become a major publisher of law school textbooks. Today, CAP publishes more than 100 books a year in academic fields ranging from legal education and criminal justice to anthropology and african studies. In 2011, CAP released its first software package, Core Grammar for Lawyers, which has been used by more than half of the law schools in the United States.
==History==
Keith Sipe and linda lacy founded Carolina Academic Press in 1974. Sipe began publishing after living in Pakistan on a Fulbright scholarship. The press's first titles were American editions of foreign scholarship. Within a few years, however, CAP was publishing original scholarship and began entering new markets.
In 1978, Carolina Academic Press published "Plain English for Lawyers" by Richard Wydick. Arriving at a time when the plain English reform movement was reaching national popularity, the book soon became what the New York Times called the "most popular legal text today." The book's success spurred CAP to enter the legal publishing field, where it is now a major publisher in the law school market.
CAP is headquartered in the historic Fitzgerald office building near downtown Durham. The building was built by Richard Fitzgerald, the son of a freed slave, around 1890. In addition to being a master brickmaker and supplying bricks used in many of Durham's historic buildings, Richard Fitzgerald was also responsible for raising his granddaughter, noted African-American lawyer and civil rights activist Pauli Murray.
