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."
Small Worlds is a fascinating compendium: photographs of aspects of everyday objects-coins, keys, cutlery-that, in photographer Matthew Wheeler's hands, are not readily recognizable.
How well do you know the world around you-the things right under your nose and at your fingertips?
The 100 photographs, extreme close-ups of objects that surround us, are puzzles which readers will have great fun trying to identify; each photograph is accompanied by a clue, printed alongside, in case you need a helping hand. From keys on a piano to grooves on an LP record, Small Worlds is ideal for an extended car trip, camping trips in the rain, or a quiet evening at home. These intriguing images are just another means of looking at the world from another perspective.
Take a look--a long look--at Small Worlds and your way of seeing things will never be the same again.
