Educational Development Corporation was founded in 1961 to develop supplemental curriculum material for schools. In 1978, EDC acquired the rights to publish children's books from Usborne Publishing in England.

The corporate office and distribution center is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. EDC began distributing Usborne books through the Publishing Division in 1978. What began as a supplement to the corporation's product line has grown to become the largest product line for the company. During the 1980's, EDC eliminated the other product lines to concentrate exclusively on Usborne books and on March 1, 1989, created the direct selling division Usborne Books at Home (UBAH). In late 2008 EDC acquired Kane/Miller Publishing, an internationally known publisher of children’s books with over 20 years in the industry. Concurrently with that acquisition, the name of the direct selling division was changed to Usborne Books & More.

Educational Development Corporation presently has two divisions. The Publishing Division distributes books to bookstores, toy stores, museums, specialty stores and other retail outlets. The Home Business Division distributes books through independent consultants who sell directly to the consumer via home shows, direct sales, book fairs, and web sites and also, when registered as educational consultants, have the right to sell to the school & library market.

The company's strategic plan includes maintaining market share in the retail division while depending on the growth engine of the company to be the direct selling division,  Usborne Books & More.

Educational Development Corporation is a publicly traded company listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the symbol EDUC. For more information go to www.edcpub.com, and click on “Investor Relations.”
