| | | Half-Blood Prince most borrowed kids book in Scotland Half-Blood Prince has topped the children's list of the most borrowed books in Scottish libraries. Quote:
McCall Smith, 59, said that he was delighted with the figures, compiled by Public Lending Right, the body which pays fees to authors for library use of books.
Overall J.K.Rowling ranked as the 107th most borrowed author. Quote:
With only seven novels to her credit, JK Rowling posts at number 107, despite Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince's showing as the most-borrowed children's book.
Rowling's comparatively lowly position is perhaps emblematic of the differences between the flighty bestseller charts and the solidity of the library lending list, which prioritises authors with a weighty backlist.

Too bad she ranked so low in the author list though :/

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |
