Abstract

The article discusses publishing trends in Russia during 2003 and the beginning of 2004. The Russian Book Chamber reports a total of over 80,000 titles published in 2003, a record. However, that figure is certainly too low. The number of scholarly books has also increased over the total in previous years. Meanwhile, the independent news media have had to contend with an ever-increasing amount of government interference.
