CanBooks is a small Canadian Publishing House, located in rural Saskatchewan. Using the Internet and other modern technology, CanBooks operates its business from many corners of the world. In many ways, we are the ultimate cottage industry. The only thing that ties us to Saskatchewan, is that we need to have our registration parked somewhere, and our bank account has to exist at some physical location. Since our roots are in Saskatchewan, that’s where our base is located.
In actuality, our authors are from all corners of the world and our editors may anywhere. Our books are printed in many countries, in various languages and sold from many international points of sale. The day when everyone had to drive to a central office to work has long passed. Today we may have an author writing in the middle of the Arabian desert corresponding with an editor in Ontario, an artist in New Zealand, the layout being done in Europe, and the book being printed – simultaneously in several countries. This is the way that modern business is carried out in our global world.
We published our first book in January 1991 and have been publishing several new titles every year since then. The year 2014 marked the first year that a book published by CanBooks became the basis of full-feature 90 minute documentary film. This film was followed by over 100 YouTube videos. A second full feather fill is planned for 2025. It’s a great place to work, if you can call it a place. Most of the people involved in the production of our books have never met each other, at least not physically. But that doesn’t stop us from being creative and producing great books, films, and games.
We have become the primary publisher of Dan Gibson’s research into the origins of Islam, and the history of pre-Islamic Arabia. We also publish books by the evangelical writer, Roland Muller, as several other authors.
