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 all here: the hockey stars, the records, the trophies, the managers. From the team's birth in the Mutual Street Arena to its tenure at Maple Leaf Gardens and graduation to the Air Canada Centre. The Essential Blue & White Book is the most complete and up-to-date fact book on Toronto's favourite team. Bursting with hundreds of pages of facts about the Leafs, this book gives the all-time leaders and team records, as well as a complete history of the Leafs' sweaters, from the St. Pats to the various classic Conn Smythe versions, right up to the current design. Season series records by team, year by year, from 1917 to the present are listed, including All-Star Game statistics.
