About BC Books Online
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."
Discover BC Books Online, the most comprehensive, current, and easy-to-use database of books and ebooks published in BC, by members of the Association of Book Publishers of British Columbia.

But how do people get this word that starts with a C?
Wait a minute! Can they spread their cancer to me?!
Don't worry, cancer isn't contagious: It doesn't spread.
It's not like a cold, so put that out of your head.
Our bodies are made up of very tiny things called cells.
Cancer happens when these cells are not working very well.
Bad cells stop healthy ones from doing what they should do.
They join together and may form a lump that causes problems too.
This is a lot of information, but please don't worry.
Instead, let us tell you of some other words that also start with C.
There is a special one called community.
A community forms when people come together in times of need.
They are kind to one another, helpful, and do lots of good deeds.
Cooking is another C word and a good way to help boost someone's mood.
If someone is feeling sick you can help by bringing their family some food.
Coming together also starts with C and is so important, son.
Making sure people know you are there for them, they are not alone and not the only one.
