BC Caver, in publication since 1987, is the newsletter of the British
Columbia Speleological Federation (BCSF). There are currently four
issues a year. The newsletter carries articles on all BCSF issues -
exploration, conservation, safety, rescue, education and technical
expertise - with an abundance of trip reports, photographs and surveys.
Content
BC Caver covers caving and related activity within British Columbia,
but also includes activities of BC cavers outside the province and -
to a lesser extent - information about caving activities in
neighbouring provinces and states. Information of general interest to
all Canadian cavers, such as equipment reports, changes in law,
etc, may also be included.
Article Submissions
Deadlines for submissions are:
December 31
March 31
June 30
September 30
Articles should be provided through email either in the body of
the email or as a Microsoft Word (or equivalent) or a text
attachment. Photographs and illustrations (particularly surveys)
are also sought, preferably sent as email attachments as JPG
files of reasonably high resolution - typically greater than
500kB. Please contact the editor if sending very large files.
The magazine is not a commercial publication and thus there is
no payment for articles or graphics.
Advertising
Advertisements may be accepted, either for their intrinsic information
value (particularly if the advertiser is from British Columbia) or for a
suitable contribution towards BCSF costs. Contact any of the editorial
team to discuss sizes, costs, etc.
Subscriptions
BC Caver is distributed free of charge in an online version only to
members of BCSF and to members of caving organizations having
exchange agreements with the Federation.
For a fee covering costs, it can be obtained in a paper or full-colour CD
version. For more information contact Lorna Duncan.
Re-publication
Permission to republish may be granted upon request provided
publication and author credit is given and a copy of the publication is
forwarded to the Editor.
