Library

 BC Cancer Agency Library

The BC Cancer Agency library provides numerous resources that can help you understand prostate cancer and how it is treated. It loans books and videos to the public and can provide an extensive list of useful web sites. Its Pathfinder service is a good place to begin. The library provides numerous books and articles for non-specialists that explain prostate cancer in non-technical language although they are written by cancer specialists.  The library is a great starting point on the journey to fully understanding the condition, its treatment and what lies beyond treatment.
