This directory is provided as a service to Langara College faculty who wish to make direct contact with publishers and their area representatives.
This is a selected list and does not include many of the smaller publishers (some of whom are distributed by the major publishers listed below). If you cannot find a reference for a specific publisher, e-mail Tracy Edgley or call her at 604.323.5202.
If you are looking for possible new text adoptions in your subject area, the Bookstore also has access to a publishers' representatives listserve and would be pleased to post a blanket request on your behalf. In many cases, publishers can direct you to an online sampling source so that you can preview the text online; once you know which text(s) you are interested in seeing, the publisher can send you a full printed copy.
