Summary/Abstract: After several years of stagnation (1956—1960), an upward trend started in publishing in 1961 and continued through the period 1963—1968, marked, however, by certain fluctuations1. The total annual number of titles rose from 6,400 in 1963 to 9,600 in 1968, or by 50 per cent, and the total annual number of copies from 45.7 to 67.7 million copies. In total annual number of titles published Yugoslavia compares well with other relatively developed European countries. It should be noted, however, that the multinational and multilingual composition of the Yugoslav community entails duplication of editions of individual works, so that the same title is registered in each language and in each script in which it is published, even when put out by the same publisher and in the same production.
