No one has ever known exactly, partly because most of the sales that go through wholesalers are not reported as to types of ultimate buyers~—retailers, libraries of different kinds, other institutions. A couple of years ago, in a personal tabulation which he called ‘Hank's Hunch' (the title is a sufficient comment on book trade statistics), Henry Z, Malek, children's book publisher, offered some educated estimates. One was that over 20% of publishers' NONTEXTBOOK sales are to libraries-— or about l4% of ALL book sales. Applied to the newly estimated 1972 total of over $3.l7—billion, 14% amounts to nearly $445—million for all librar~ ies of all kinds; other methods of estimating produce figures as high as this or higher."
