Established in 1990, BML is the leading company in the UK providing specialist information for and about the book industry. In particular, its knowledge and range of information on the consumer book market is unparalleled.

In 2003 BML was purchased by Publishing News and continues to offer a full qualitative and quantitative research service to the book trade. Services offered range from large-scale surveys for individual clients or syndicates, to focus groups, questionnaire design and analysis and individual customer interviews.

BML's flagship survey, Books and the Consumer, has been running since 1989 and provides subscribers with detailed information on consumer book buying habits.

'The insight into consumer behaviour we have gained from subscribing to BML's data has made a direct impact on our marketing strategy'.
