How does your library’s collection stack up to the results of a recent Harris Poll that includes facts like?:
-1 of 3 Americans read more than 10 books in typical year.
-1 of 5 Americans purchased no books last year.
-45% of those who read at least one book a year said have less time for reading books today than they did five years ago.

Read the whole poll and interesting data tables for the number of books read, time spent reading, and types and genres read at: The Harris PollĀ® #37, April 7, 2008
