Georgia School Book Depository

PBD is proud to be the Georgia School Book Depository; a distinction we have held since 1991. Georgia School Book (GSB) is a conglomeration of educational publishers serving the State of Georgia Board of Education. A sampling of the publishers we work with include Harcourt Inc., Thompson Learning, Davis Publications, Scholastic Inc., and WH Freeman.

"One of our major goals for the shipping season was to incorporate Harcourt into the PBD order system...The PBD systems integration team did a tremendous job in meeting all of the Harcourt order and system requirements on time and within budget...One of the major accomplishments in this systems integration was it being accomplished without interfering with the day-to-day Harcourt sales at PBD. There was not a single disruption of our service to customers and clients...My thanks to your great employees who work so diligently on this project."
