The Queen’s University Writing Style Guide is a quick reference for writing guidelines and style. It is helps employees who communicate on behalf of their department or the university to maintain clarity, consistency, and best practices in writing.
Queen’s follows the Canadian Press Stylebook and Caps and Spelling (CP) and the Canadian Oxford Dictionary (Oxford) for spelling.
The Guide also includes Queen's-specific rules that differ from CP and Oxford, highlighting exceptions and university preferences.
