Off late we were looking to stock our library. The CBSE mandate is for every single students, the school library has to have 5 books. Right now we do not have one single vendor/merchant/distributor or publisher who could be a single point contact for the library requirements. Plus, when the school is looking to save on costs and also stock the right books, one is tempted to take the difficult road of choosing books from a plethora of publishers and options.
The aim of writing this post is to give educators/librarians a good starting point from where they can look to fine tune their buys.
The publishers;
there are certain publishers and books recommended by CBSE. here goes the list;

Hello Surjeet,
I am not into supplying of books, I have just put the list for all the school’s to get books from the market.
Dear Team,
My name is Mudit Mittal from Meerut (UP), I am manufacturer of CBSE children books from the class of KG to 12th. My Company name is Brainmate Book Publication.
Hi Team,
My name is Rakesh Kushwaha, i am Children Book publishers in Ahmedabad and Delhi Ncr. My company name is Magpie Books. We also provide all kinds of CBSE books for children, Ebooks etc…
How many magazines should be in school library according to cbse rules. Somewhere mentioned 15 and somewhere mentioned 25 which is right. 15 is sufficient if we are going to taking affiliation upto 10class
15 is sufficient

There is not one publisher which one should go with. I suggest you speak to everyone and ask for their school library catalogue and buy from all of them.
