DIGITAL READING DEVICES DOUBLE.

New York, NY.  It was announced last week at the Digital Book World conference that the growth of this market is being driven by the increasing number of digital readers in the hands of consumers.  The number of dedicated e-readers or tablet doubled during the 2011 holiday season.  This is from a survey conducted by the Pew Research Center’s Internet and American Life Project.  The study found that 29% of adults owned an e-reader or tablet in early January 2012.
