About Grupo Santillana
Grupo Editorial Santillana has its origin in the publishing house Santillana, founded in 1960 with the educational mission of providing teachers and students with innovative and high-quality instructional materials. Though Santillana originates in Spain, it is an international publisher with affiliates in almost all Spanish-speaking countries, and also in Portugal, United Kingdom, Brazil, and the United States.

In the 1970s, Grupo Santillana broadened its activity to trade publishing, featuring a wide range of trade books in Spanish for children and adults. Its many prestigious trade imprints include: Alfaguara, Aguilar, Taurus, Alamah, Altea and Alfaguara Juvenil/Infantil, Richmond, and Santillana, Punto de lectura.

In the 1990s, Grupo Santillana started operating in adult online education. This project culminated with the creation of Santillana Formación (Santillana Education) and Instituto Universitario de Posgrado (Postgraduated Studies Institute), two new divisions.Currently, Grupo Santillana boasts 21 offices worldwide and is the largest educational publisher in the Spanish-speaking world. Since March 2000, Grupo Santillana is part of PRISA, the leading Spanish- and Portuguese-language group in education, communication, and entertainment, with a presence in 22 countries in Europe and America.
