With 181,189 Books Published Each Year Just in the United States, How Will Yours Get Found, Noticed, and SOLD? Book marketing and book selling can feel pretty overwhelming. You want to sell more books. Of the hundreds of ways to generate book sales, which ones will be effective—for your title, your market, your budget, and your own personal style? 181,189 books were published in the US in 2004. And it goes up almost every year. In 2002, just two years earlier, only 119,123 books were published. As recently as 1990, the number was only 46,736—only 25.79 percent as many.
