The new edition of the 2012 BPI Yearbook is now available - find it in the statistics collection at the number: 338.4762138932 BPI.
The yearbook provides facts, figures and analsis of recorded music in the UK - Topics covered include music consumption, music retail, sales figures by format and this year even includes a profile of the top rock best sellers in vinyl.
Because it's an invaluable resource you won't be able to borrow it. However we also keep the older editions, so you can make a comparison of data going back to 1999.
Some of the information that has been used has come from the Official Charts company http://www.officialcharts.com/. It is responsible for the commissioning, marketing, distribution and management of the UK's official music and video charts.
You can also access their Vault, where you can search their full database of singles, albums , compilation and video charts going back to 1960, here. Search for artists, charts, singles and album titles by filling in the relevant field on the top right.
