Several of Heron Books published works for students are based on the teachings of American author, L. Ron Hubbard. The Heron Basics Program is listed on the website of the Delphi Academy as their basis of instruction.[6]

Two other publishers have been called Heron Books, both based in London. One published faux-leather classics in the late 1960s and early 1970s[7] while the other published new fiction and nonfiction as an imprint of Quercus from 2011 to 2016.[8]
