Use of Canadian Books in Ontario Public and Catholic Intermediate and Secondary English Departments: Results of a Survey of Teachers of Grades 7 through 12

This report was commissioned by the Ontario Book Publishers Organization (OBPO) to provide better insight on the fiction and non-fiction books (with the exclusion of textbooks) that are read in Ontario public and Catholic English classes from Grades 7-12. The report details which titles are most commonly found in classrooms, and sought to identify the Canadian titles or authors are being read. This report provides a table which lists both the author and titles of books are taught in classrooms, and gives insight as to how teachers choose which books will be taught in classes.
