Books published per country per year

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page lists the number of book titles published per country per year from various sources. According to UNESCO, this is an important index of standard of living, education, and of a country's self-awareness.[1] No standardised way to track the number of books published exists which can make it difficult to compare countries or track the industry as a whole.[2] One method is to track how many International Standard Book Numbers (ISBNs) are registered by each country.[2]

Countries by ISBN

Many published books have an ISBN and it is a useful measure for how productive a country's publishing industry is.[2] However, this data is not collected for all countries. It may not represent the total number of books a country has published, as not every registered ISBN is then used and as books may have multiple ISBNs.[2]
