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."
Hey, golf fans--take a swing at code puzzles, crosswords, wise quotes, and "tee-offs"--plus other games and trivia about your favorite sport! See how you score on numerical golf lore: answer each question with one of the numbers on a diagrammed golf course. Then, plug that number into a given equation and do the math. If you come up with 4, it's bogey; 3 is par; 2 makes a birdie; and 1 means you've aced it. Or figure out who made this wry and humorous comment after hitting two tee-shots into a parking lot: "Well, that lot's full. Let's see if I can park this baby someplace else." Was it Nancy Lopez, JoAnne Carner, or Amy Benz? (The answer: Carner.) Even basic crosswords have something extra, because the filled-in grid hides a notable golf fact to decipher. It's the ultimate challenge for any golf lover! The author lives in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. 64 pages, 50 b/w illus., 5 1/2 x 8 1/2
