McGill-Queen's University Press (MQUP) is a Canadian university press formed as a joint venture between McGill University in Montreal, Quebec and Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario. It is headquartered in Montreal, within the unceded territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka Nation.
McGill-Queen's University Press publishes original peer-reviewed works in the social sciences and humanities. With over 4,000 titles in print, by both leading scholars and emerging voices, McGill-Queen’s has grown to become one of the leading university presses in North America. Since 2023, the press has been under the direction of Lisa Quinn, former director of Wilfrid Laurier University Press and current president of the Association of Canadian Publishers. Previous MQUP directors include David Fate Norton and Philip Cercone. For many years, one of its senior editors was the historian and author Donald Akenson.
The press is currently a member of the Association of University Presses (AUP), the Association of Canadian University Presses (ACUP), and the Association of Canadian Publishers (ACP).
