Why publish your book with MQUP?
Committed to publishing excellence, our goal is to produce rigorously edited, beautifully designed, intelligent, interesting books. We work individually and enthusiastically on behalf of every book we publish, from the submission of the manuscript to the production and promotion of the finished volume. MQUP has a global presence and our books are read around the world.
Editorial Expertise
Our acquisitions editors provide informed help in our full range of publishing areas. They advise authors on the development of their manuscripts, see them through a constructive peer-review process, and guide them through revisions. Our experienced copy-editors work closely with authors to ensure that their books are clearly written, cogently argued, and consistently presented.
Production Values
MQUP’s standards for printing and design endow each of our books with the highest production value. Our cover and interior designs are award-winning. A concept-driven approach allows our designers to translate sometimes complex subjects into striking and sophisticated images. Our interior design is sensitive to the content and approach of each book, to ensure aesthetic harmony and ease of reading. All our books are printed on acid-free stock. When possible, we use stock that is also 100% post-consumer content and ancient forest free.
Marketing Reach
Our marketing department promotes our books to scholarly audiences and broader markets in Canada and internationally. More than half of MQUP’s sales are outside Canada through agents and distributors in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, India, and Japan. We develop advertising and promotion campaigns for a range of media, send out a generous number of review copies, attend annual meetings in numerous academic disciplines, and submit our books for all relevant awards and competitions.

Digital vision
MQUP has a full catalogue of digitized titles and our electronic books are released simultaneously with the printed volumes. Our publishing includes initiatives to make some books available in open access when financial support allows and we have published several books in open access editions, including those supported by the Wellcome Trust and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada funding. We are working at the forefront of digital publishing and continually adapting to ensure that our books are available across a range of print and electronic formats and will be accessible to future generations of readers.
