BOOKS
University of Toronto Press is Canada’s leading academic publisher and one of the largest university presses in North America, with particular strengths in the social sciences, humanities, and business. We are a mission-driven publisher widely recognized in Canada for its strength in history, political science, sociology, Indigenous studies, and cultural studies. Internationally, UTP is a leading publisher of medieval, Renaissance, Italian, Iberian, Slavic, and urban studies, as well as studies in book and print culture.
As a not-for-profit university press with the goal of publishing affordable books for undergraduate students, UTP is a first alternative to commercial textbook publishers. Part of our mandate is to publish materials for course use that are pedagogically valuable and that also contribute to ongoing scholarship. The possibilities for rethinking how texts can be used in the classroom, along with new formats for their delivery, are endless, and UTP looks forward to partnering with instructors and scholars in this innovative endeavour.
With the publication of influential authors and award-winning research, as well as a continuing dedication to groundbreaking new scholarship and innovative texts for the higher education market, UTP has firmly established its reputation for excellence. In addition to our scholarly and higher education lists, our imprints include:
