Publishing and Bookselling in Armenia
A summary of a survey carried out in 2012-2013
The survey on publishing and bookselling in Armenia was commissioned and monitored by the National Publishers
Association of Armenia as part of the Book Platform project. Being the first ever attempt to collect, systematize and analyze primary and secondary data on publishing and bookselling in the
country, the survey faced significant challenges. Much of the basic information collected is inherently fragmented and only partly consistent, and thus the
survey results rather raise questions than provide answers. Drawing a reliable and a consistent picture of the Armenian book sector remains a task for the future.
The publication available below offers an overview prepared by Rüdiger Wischenbart on the basic parameters of the Armenian "book ecosystem".

Armenia is a super small country with low population, most of people never read a book or an article, so I recommend you to not bother publishing any text in Armenia!
Economically the country is bankrupt and the level of educated people is pretty down!
They are still stuck in Russian language and culture. Barely you can find someone to admit that Soviet Union does not exist anymore! LOL!
