Publishers Release 9,000 New Audiobooks in 2006
Posted March 6, 2007 | Filed Under General Info, Books In Print
Bowker, the world’s leading provider of bibliographic information, today released the first comprehensive statistical portrait of U.S. audiobook publishing, which found that even as spoken word audio becomes increasingly available in 21st century formats like downloadable digital files, publishers and customers alike continue to favor 19th and 20th century guilty pleasures like mystery and detective novels. The data was compiled from Bowker’s Books In Print® database, and was based on figures reported by U.S. audiobook publishers and imprints reflecting all new spoken word audio releases, including audiobook-only titles as well as those based on works previously published as print books.
