Can Beacon help me find a book?
Quite likely! Most of our books are NOT computer catalogued. There are too many and they come and go too quickly to keep up a complete computer inventory. However, our staff is very knowledgeable & can help you find the book you are looking for.
Doing a book search for something special or rare or hard to find? That material may possibly be found using our online catalogue. Rare, of out-of-print, collectible, very old books or Signed and/or First Edition books can be searched through abebooks.com. Right click on the abebooks.com link or click the FIND OUT MORE button below and you can search for that rare or hard to find book right now.
Or if you are doing another kind of book search you can phone us (250-655-4447) or contact us by email at beaconbooks@shaw.ca and we will check our store inventory or the Abebooks.com online catalogue for the book you are looking for.
