With over 75 years of combined experience in the education and book industry, multiple advanced degrees in Library Science, and lifetimes of love for books, our Collection Development team is small but mighty!


Booksource's Collection Development team is in charge of building and maintaining our database of title and collection data. They work directly with over 150 publishers to select the best titles for Booksource to carry. Every year they curate and refresh all of our Booksource Collections, update all our title data, and work with other experts in the book and education industries to stay up to date on all things education and literacy!


We manually vet and verify every Booksource Verified title in all categories including reading level (only taken from the official sources), interest level, content, subject tags, and awards and recognition. You can trust that if a title is Booksource Verified, we have checked and double-checked it to give you the best information.
