    The mission of this publication from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, is "to foster a wider academic interest in the Canadian literary field." The journal features 15- to 20-page scholarly essays. Each issue also contains original poetry and book reviews. Some articles and reviews are written in French. Recent special issues include "Asian Canadian Studies" and "Canada and Its Discontents." The journal's web site is impressive and includes exclusive online features such as interviews, biographies of poets, and even games. The web site also features three databases: Canadian poets and poetry; a directory of Canadian publishers; and a directory of Canadian scholars organized by field of study (and including brief bio and contact information). 2009 is the journal's 50th anniversary year. Recommended for libraries that support studies in Canadian and/or world literature. (HB) (Buchanan, Heidi)
