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."

Canada is one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world. Fantastic foods and culinary traditions that originated on the other side of the globe are available right here at home, and they are arguably just as Canadian as tourtière and poutine. If the United States is a melting pot, then Canada is a bountiful buffet.
One World Kitchen features five passionate and engaging hosts each of whom represent one cuisine—Indian, Thai, Italian, South American and Japanese. This vibrant mix of traditions and ingredients is both a celebration of distinct heritage and a recognition that good food is best shared.
