World Cheese Book by Harbutt and Mastering Cheese by McCalman are popular books in these parts. The new Oxford Companion to Cheese is great too.
If you're interested in the technical side of things you can check out cheesescience.org (shameless plug)
All that said, the most important thing you could do is to have a solid knowledge of the cheese you sell. Know where each one is made, who makes it, what kind of milk/rennet, raw/pasteurized, flavors, pairings, etc.
Cheese has been codified for a bit.

But for that price I would probably get something like this:
