About Us
Pickabook is a web based book supply company based in the United Kingdom.  It was founded in 1998. 

Today, we offer ten times as many books for sale, and we also have a growing schools supply business.

In all, we now offer:
  • Over 5 million new books from stock (all our books are new);
  • Great discounts;
  • Fast dispatch;
  • Excellent customer care.
The challenges and opportunities for our business may have changed, but our love of good books, great service and a great price is one that we share with our customers.

In April, 2011 Pickabook was acquired by Kent Book Company, a long-established and well-respected supplier of books to schools and other institutions.  The acquisition makes it possible to combine the strengths of the two businesses, to create an even more impressive offering for customers.
