E-books are Positive Light for Otherwise Low April Figures
Sales of e-books were up 268.3 percent in April, with sales of $900,000. The category is up 160.8 percent for the year, according to figures just released by the Association of American Publishers (AAP). While the nascent e-book market is growing fast, it is still a diminutive part of the industry with relatively small sales figures compared to all other book categories in the AAP domestic sales report.
Overall, book sales in April reflected current economic trends, with net sales declining in 9 of 13 book categories. Adult hardcover sales dropped 33.7 percent ($79.1 million), while paperback sales fell 7.2 percent, with sales of $66.2 million in April. Calendar year to date figures show sales of hardcover books down 28.7 percent and paperback down 9.9 percent. The adult mass market category posted a rise of 22.8 percent in April, with sales of $72.5 million. Year to date numbers show sales are down 7 percent for this category.
