民國101年臺灣圖書出版現貌與趨勢之探討

A Look at Conditions and Trends in Taiwan's Books Publication during 2012

國家圖書館自民國78年7月起，全面推行國際標準書號（ISBN）編碼與出版品預行編目（簡稱CIP）兩項作業制度，為臺灣圖書出版品編碼之標準化與國際化開創一個新的里程碑，79年2月國際標準書號中心（以下簡稱書號中心）正式成立。書號中心自開辦起即以自動化作業方式，為出版者編配即將出版新書之ISBN及CIP資料，同時將出版社等相關名錄資訊導入「全國新書資訊網（ISBNnet）」，提供各界檢索最新出版圖書、出版機構查詢，以及新書書目下載服務等功能，以作為出版業界掌握出版先機，讀者及圖書館界閱讀和選購新書的重要依據。本報告即以探討各界（含一般出版社、政府機關、會社團體和個人），於101年度內向國圖書號中心申請ISBN暨CIP資料為基礎，統計分析我國各界出版新書之總（種）數、主題類別、常用分類、翻譯圖書的語文及其來自哪些國家地區、電子書申辦ISBN編碼情形，以呈現臺灣最新圖書出版風貌及其趨勢，進一步作為提供我國好書資訊平台，共同提升全民閱讀風氣而努力。

National Central Library has been promoting ISBN coding and Cataloging in Publication (CIP) since July 1989. This was a new milestone at the time in the standardization and internationalization of publications coding in Taiwan. In February 1990, Taiwan's ISBN Center was officially established. Since then, the Center has been using an automated system to assign ISBNs and CIPs to new publications. It has also imported information regarding publishers and related directory to its ISBNnet website, providing searches of new books and publishing houses, as well as downloadable bibliographies of new publications. This data can be used by those in the publication industry to understand publication trends, or by individuals and libraries to make reading and acquisition choices. This paper will explore publications by publishers, government agencies, social groups and individuals during 2012, based on ISBN and CIP application information submitted to the Center. Specifically, the total number of publications, topic categories, common classification, the language and origin of translated books, and conditions regarding ISBN application for e-books will be analyzed. The results show the current conditions and trends of new publications in Taiwan, and provide a platform for good books information in Taiwan to be used in increasing public reading.
