Overview
The Editora Eletrônica da Faculdade de Saúde Pública da USP (the Electronic Publisher of the School of Public Health of the University of São Paulo) is the digital book imprint of the Faculdade de Saúde Pública (FSP) at the Universidade de São Paulo (USP). It operates as one of the collections within e-Coleções FSP/USP, the open-access electronic collections managed by the FSP/USP Library. The imprint publishes digital books edited by the School of Public Health, requiring that at least one faculty member of the School serve as author, organizer, editor, or in a similar role. Its subject matter centers on themes relevant to the development of public health, aimed at academic, technical, and professional audiences. The Editora Eletrônica is governed by an Editorial Board (Conselho Editorial) that evaluates works for publication according to standards pre-established in its Editorial Policy. According to the e-Coleções FSP/USP "About" page, the publisher began as a project to create a collection of electronic documents, integrated with the Brazilian BVS-SP network, with free access and decentralized editing by producing institutions. Over time, its collections were distributed across various repositories, and the e-Coleções digital library page was created to bring them together for easier use. Works published under the imprint are released in open access, typically in PDF format, and are licensed for download, printing, and sharing provided that credit is given to the authors. Many titles carry Creative Commons Attribution licenses and are assigned DOIs, and they are linked to the USP Open Books Portal (Portal de Livros Abertos da USP). Representative titles include "Toxicologia ambiental: um guia para estudantes," "Sistemas alimentares e Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável," "Metodologias ativas no ensino superior: aplicação em epidemiologia nutricional," "Caminhos verdes: interfaces saúde e ambiente para o desenvolvimento sustentável," and "Debates sobre Estado e capital: contribuições contemporâneas e críticas sobre a derivação do Estado" (2025). The imprint is not a commercial trade publisher but an institutional, state-owned academic publishing operation of a Brazilian public university. Its output supports teaching, research, and knowledge dissemination in public health, and it is closely tied to the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS) audience and the broader open-science ecosystem in Brazil.
History
The Editora Eletrônica da Faculdade de Saúde Pública da USP is the digital book publishing arm of the Faculdade de Saúde Pública (FSP) at the Universidade de São Paulo (USP). According to the e-Coleções FSP/USP "About" page, the publisher began as a project to create a collection of electronic documents, integrated with the Brazilian BVS-SP network, with free access and decentralized editing by producing institutions. The collections developed over several years and were initially distributed across various repositories; the e-Coleções digital library page was later created by the FSP/USP Library to bring them together and facilitate their use. The imprint operates within e-Coleções FSP/USP, the open-access electronic collections managed by the FSP/USP Library, which produces, edits, or provides access to the collections. The Editora Eletrônica collection consists of digital books edited by the School of Public Health, with the requirement that at least one faculty member of the School serve as author, organizer, editor, or similar. The publisher is overseen by an Editorial Board (Conselho Editorial) that evaluates works for publication according to standards pre-established in its Editorial Policy. Items in the collections have authorization from the authors for open access, and each collection has its own criteria for submission and editing. Works are licensed for download, printing, and sharing provided credit is attributed to the authors. Titles published under the imprint are typically released in PDF format, often carry Creative Commons Attribution licenses, and are assigned DOIs; they are linked to the USP Open Books Portal (Portal de Livros Abertos da USP). A representative recent title is "Debates sobre Estado e capital: contribuições contemporâneas e críticas sobre a derivação do Estado" (2025), edited by Áquilas Mendes, Leonardo Carnut, Lúcia Dias da Silva Guerra, and Thaísa Simplício Carneiro, published by the Faculdade de Saúde Pública da USP in São Paulo. The publisher's subject focus is public health and related interdisciplinary themes, including environmental toxicology, food systems and the Sustainable Development Goals, active teaching methodologies in nutritional epidemiology, health and environment interfaces for sustainable development, and political economy of the state. Its audience is the academic, technical, and professional community, with an emphasis on knowledge that can be appropriated by the general population and users of Brazil's Unified Health System (SUS).
