e -Books: Just 3% of the French Book Market

Shelf Awareness

While sales of digital books have grown dramatically in the last several years in the U.S. and U.K., "they're not having the same luck in France," the Digital Reader reported, citing a report from the Syndical national de l'édition, which "shows that e-books are still a negligible part of the French book market."

According to study, France's e-book market share rose from 1% in 2011 to 3% this year. The report predicted a further rise, noting "a number of positive trends, including a growing interest in France for e-readers and e-books."
