According to Johnson, all this has lead to increased competition for shelf space and “mind space,” making the market far more complex than it was just a few years ago.
Analysts say recent purchases and restructurings, coupled with the lack of a blockbuster religious title last year, actually contributed to a decline in the number of titles released in 2006. Preliminary reports from the Bowker Books in Print database, provided by Bowker’s Simba Information Inc., indicate the number of new religious titles dropped to 12,598 in 2006 from 15,671 the previous year—a 19.6-percent decline.
