James Patterson Tops Library Lending Chart . . . again


book2book Friday 08 Feb 2013

US crime writers dominate the list of most borrowed authors from British libraries, with James Patterson in pole position for the sixth year in a row.

Seventeen of the top 20 most borrowed adult fiction titles were by US, or US-based, crime writers; nine of them written, or co-written, by Patterson.
Patterson's 10th Anniversary was the most-borrowed title of 2012.
He and Children's Laureate Julia Donaldson were among seven authors to score over a million loans last year.
