NPD BookScan: US Market sees 6.4 Percent Growth Through Third Quarter - Publishing Perspectives

 As Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere, he heard clapping and cheering coming from outside the Panzermobile. Following all the happiness, took our intrepid kitty traveler to the Publishing Perspectives site. With a little digging in the posts there he found one about U.S. book sales.

That's a lot of books.

According to the post by Porter Anderson, BookScan showed U.S. book sales through the 2020 third quarter increased 6.4 percent over the same time period in 2019. BookScan's sales report was based on the combined adult, children and YA print books and ebooks sales. The post includes a breakdown of sales in each category.

 

Panzer says, "Hmm. A lot of people in the U.S. must have been buying print books online."
