BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."
It’s summer vacation and a camping trip seems in order, but your group’s not interested in eating packaged rice and tofu-dogs for a week. Another Fork in the Trail is the vegetarian and vegan sequel to the backcountry cookbook A Fork in the Trail and your solution to eating like the king of the forest.
Laurie Ann March offers more than 120 recipes designed for hikers, paddlers, campers and picnic-goers who prefer a veggie-themed menu. With an emphasis on nutritious food that keeps you going, these recipes range from quick and easy to decadently gourmet. Each recipe includes instructions for at-home preparation and drying and the finishing touches at camp. With helpful tips on packaging and travelling with camp-friendly food, this book is the definitive guide to tasty, easy-to-pack-with-you meals that will revolutionize the way you eat on the trail.
Try smoky lentil pâté, agave granola with goji berries, or tofu jerky. Expand your horizons with olive tapenade, red quinoa and curried lentil stew, and yummy fruit cookies. You’ll never go hungry with this book in your backpack.
