The Books on Books
Failed novelist that I am, I found these publishing industry statistics rather fascinating and even promising. The list is both exhaustive and exhausting, but I picked out a few favourites for you, smarmy reader:
* 1.5+ million titles in print (currently available in the U.S.) Since 1776, 22 million titles have been published.
* 8,000-11,000 new publishing companies are established each year.
* Canada: About 50,000 titles are published each year.
