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."
Patrick Roy is one of the world's best hockey goalies. Like many goaltenders, Patrick is a bit quirky. He thinks his best friends are the goalposts of his net because they stop a lot of pucks. So why not talk to them? But where did Patrick come from? What tricks of the trade does he use? And, more important, how did he become the goalie NHL greats like Wayne Gretzky, Brett Hull and Eric Lindros fear more than anyone else? The answers are found in the pages of this book.
