For model selection using BIC you can have a look at stepAIC() from 
package MASS and boot.stepAIC() from package bootStepAIC. For 
instance,

library(bootStepAIC)

boot.stepAIC(glmFit1, data, B = 50, k = log(nrow(n)))

where `glmFit1' is the object represinting the fitted model, `data' 
the data.frame containing the variables for the analysis, `B' the 
number of bootstrap replicates, and `k' is the multiple of the number 
of degrees of freedom used for the penalty, which when equal to log(n) 
is the BIC.

By default boot.stepAIC() returns as well the results of stepAIC().

I hope it helps.

Best,
Dimitris
