"The Rise of E-Reading" confirm a number of trends the Association has eyewitnessed--the fact that four times the number of people report reading ebooks on a typical day now compared with only two years ago and that the number of people who own e-reader devices or tablets nearly doubled between mid-December 2011 and the beginning of February 2012.The report is the first comprehensive examination of US adult reading habits since ebooks have come to prominence. Among the key findings in the report, released April 4, are that 78% of adults read a book in the past year, 14% of these readers borrowed their last book from our nation's libraries, and one in five adults reported reading an ebook in the past year.The research effort was underwritten by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
