how does 'the very' in the middle of the sentence function?

"The very" in the middle of the sentence emphasizes the adjective "best". So in this example, it is not just the best source of information but the best of the best. "The very best" can also be seen as synonymous with amazing or fantastic. Ex: We aim to provide you with the very best services. = We want to provide you with amazing services. Ex: I wish you the very best for the coming year. = I hope that the coming year is a fantastic year for you.
