At Concord we are passionate about libraries and we are passionate about education. In fact we truly believe that the school library or learning hub needs to be at the heart of all K-12 schools (and other educational institutions). Reading, searching, learning and expanding each and every child’s global reach through their school is crucial to their development and educational progress. Each and every member of our global team share our passion and want to share that with schools around the world. From humble beginnings... It all started with a passion. A core belief that technology, used properly, can provide powerful instruments that help guide learners along their educational journey. The man behind that passion is Colin Bell, a former teacher, who recognised this potential way back in 1987. From Colin’s passion Concord was established and our ethos has never changed. Moving forward to the 21st century, Colin’s team, and Concord’s solutions have evolved into something much bigger. Always focused on our customers’ needs, Concord has moulded and adapted its solutions to make work “less like work” and to pro-actively align disparate learning services and tools for effective support of the curriculum. Our vision: to deliver the industry leading library solutions and services; to adapt to the rapid changes that come with new technology, and; to raise the value of the library in the minds of students and teaching professionals.
