Ticonderoga Publications is an Australian independent publishing house founded by Russell B. Farr in 1996 and now run by Farr and Liz Grzyb. The publisher specialises in collections of science fiction short stories.

Ticonderoga Publications was founded Russell B. Farr in 1996. Co-partner in Ticonderoga Publications is editor Liz Grzyb. The publisher initially specialised in collections of science fiction short stories. Between 1996 and 1999, Ticonderoga Press published collections by Steven Utley, Sean Williams, Stephen Dedman and other writers. According to Peek, "Under Farr, Ticonderoga Publications gathered a reputation for producing sturdy, thick-papered, elegant collections."

Ticonderoga Publications suspended producing books in 1999 when the Australian government brought in the GST (Goods and Services Tax) that raised the price of books by ten percent, with the editor concentrating on his TiconderogaOnline webzine instead.

In 2005, Ticonderoga Press announced resumed publication with two new anthologies released in late 2006-early 2007. In 2006, Ticonderoga Publications published Troy, a collection by Simon Brown. In 2007, TP published the Ditmar Award winning Fantastic Wonder Stories, edited by Russell B. Farr.

TP has published several anthologies, including The Workers' Paradise (2007) edited by Russell B. Farr and Nick Evans, Australia's first SF anthology to explore the future of work; Scary Kisses (2010) edited by Liz Grzyb, Australia's first paranormal romance anthology; and Belong (2010) edited by Russell B. Farr, twenty-three stories of interstellar immigration with writers from Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, USA, UK, and New Zealand.

In 2008, Ticonderoga Publications published Magic Dirt: the best of Sean Williams, winner of the inaugural Aurealis Award for Best Collection.
