About us

Thirty-five Years of Showing up for K-12 Schools.

A family business built on relationships, guided by a genuine love for education, and driven by one simple belief — that schools deserve a representative who truly knows their craft.

Our story

Where It All Started

In 1990, Marcy Abrams started what would become one of Pennsylvania’s most trusted independent educational representative businesses. Her son Corey joined her and together they built Abrams Educational Solutions on a foundation of personal service, deep publisher knowledge, and a genuine belief that schools deserve more than a catalogue and a portal.

For over 20 years Corey has worked alongside school librarians, curriculum directors, and education administrators across Pennsylvania and Delaware — learning their budgets, understanding their curriculums, and building the kind of relationships that make ordering not just easier but better. Publishers trust him. Schools count on him. And every order large or small gets the same personal attention.

Today Abrams Educational Solutions represents more than 20 leading educational publishers offering K-12 schools access to exclusive promotions, free shipping, complimentary MARC records, and a level of service you simply cannot get anywhere else.

In Loving Memory of My Mother, Marcy

Marcy Abrams was many things — a businesswoman, a community advocate, a dedicated mother. But above all she was someone who believed in libraries and education with her whole heart. She did not just sell books and resources to schools. She served them.

Marcy’s love for libraries lives in every relationship we carry forward. Her legacy is the standard we hold ourselves to.
What guides us

The Values Behind Every Order

The most expensive product you’ll ever buy is the one that never gets used. Corey works with you to determine your needs and guides you to the best solution that your students and teachers can depend on.

Personal Service

Every school we work with gets direct access to Corey. Not a call centre, not a ticket system — a real relationship with someone who understands your school, your budget, and your goals.

Long-Term Partnerships

We do not measure success by a single order. We measure it by the relationships that have lasted 10, 20, and 30 years with the same schools.

Reviewing budgets and planning school purchases

Budget Stewardship

We work as hard to stretch your budget as we do to fill your shelves. Every promotion, every deal, every dollar saved matters.

Love For Education

This is not just a business. Education changes lives — and helping schools access the resources that make that possible is what has kept Corey in this industry for over 20 years.

Why work with us

What Makes Working With Corey Different

There are easier ways to order resources. You can go directly to a publisher. You can use a jobber. You can browse a catalogue and submit a purchase order without ever speaking to anyone. But schools that work with Corey keep coming back — and here is why.

Abrams Educational Solutions represents more than 20 leading educational publishers. Corey has worked with these publishers for decades which means schools get access to promotions, pricing, and service that simply is not available anywhere else.

Every school is different. Elementary schools need picture books and early readers. Middle schools need nonfiction series and databases. High schools need reference materials, digital resources, and titles that support a range of reading levels and curriculum needs.
