Baker & Taylor and YBP Library Services are major suppliers of books and non-print materials to libraries throughout the world, and the largest supplier of firm-order books to academic libraries in North America.

Title Source is a collection development, and ordering tool set offering verified bibliographic information for nearly five million US and UK, in-print, forthcoming, and out-of-print books, ebooks and videos, audio music, spoken word audio, and more. TS is the most complete, accurate and up-to-date resource available to academic libraries, regardless of their chosen book vendor. TS also provides in-stock information for a range of vendors, including NACS, and, for out-of-print material, Alibris.

Complete, accurate, updated bibliographic information for monographs, AV material and eBooks is supplemented by tables of contents, annotations, book jackets, and full-text reviews, citations and excerpts. Complex searches of the database can be customized with Boolean operators in any of 40+ search index criteria. Users can also perform searches of table of contents information, review text, and annotation text. Searches can be further refined by use of 50+ search filters such as academic level, price, language, inventory status at B&T or other suppliers, and date of publication.
