Between the Lines Founded in 1977, Between the Lines publishes nonfiction books that expose and challenge oppression in our society.

BTL is proudly leftwing and the books we publish reflect our activist roots and our commitment to social justice struggles. Between the Lines books present new ideas and challenge readers to rethink the world around them. Our authors offer analysis of historical events and contemporary issues not often found in the mainstream. We specialize in informative, non-fiction books on politics and public

policy, social issues, Canadian and world history, international development, gender and sexuality, critical race issues, culture, adult and popular education, labour and work, environment, technology, and media.

Another year has come and gone!

The past year has undoubtedly been a difficult one–but it has also been a year of incredible breakthroughs and victories for leftist and social movements. Between the Lines is grateful to our communities for the support that sustains us. To justice and abundance in the year ahead, from Turtle Island to Palestine, and beyond!

PS: BTL's office will be closed Dec 24, 2025 until Jan 1, 2026. See you in the new year!
