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."
The implementation of ecosystem management is one of the many challenges facing the forest industry today. This book contains the proceedings from a gathering of industry, government, and academic leaders who met in Nelson, British Columbia, to discuss state of the art concepts in ecosystem management of forested landscapes. With a keynote address by Hamish Kimmins, this book contains 25 papers on a wide variety of topics including natural disturbance, landscape ecology, forest certification, landscape planning, social acceptability, and forest policy and regulation. This book is an important resource for anyone interested in the management of forests in British Columbia and elsewhere.
Robert G. D'Eon (editor) is Consulting Wildlife and Forest Ecologist at Kokanee Forests Consulting Ltd. in Slocan, British Columbia.
