If you've strolled through a library recently, you likely saw a lot of Baker & Taylor (B&T) without knowing it. The #1 book supplier to libraries, B&T primarily serves two types of markets. Its core business distributes books, calendars, music, and DVDs to thousands of school, public, and specialty libraries worldwide. The firm's retail unit supplies storefront and Internet retailers, as well as independent booksellers, with a million book titles and about 311,000 DVD, and CD titles. On the Internet (which formerly operated as Informata.com), B&T offers B2B e-commerce fulfillment services. Investment firm Willis Stein & Partners sold the company to Castle Harlan.
