Osborne has also worked full-time as an author of record guides and reference books since 1975. As of 2016, his published works number more than 200 books and over 150 periodicals. He still produces several new books each year.
Jerry has, since 1986, written the popular, weekly newspaper feature, "Mr. Music." Distributed to papers nationally by World Features Syndicate, the column answers readers' music questions. Jerry's column is also prominently featured in each issue of "Cashbox Magazine."
He founded and published three news and music magazines: "Record Digest," "Music World" and "DISCoveries." In the '80s, he published "The Osborne Report."

In January 1999, Osborne was named "Pop Collectibles Author of the Year 1998," and in 2011, he received the U.S. Commerce Association's "Best Of Commercial & Literary Writings" award.
In 2007, The Hit Parade Hall of Fame invited Jerry to be a Charter Member of their Nominating Committee.
