Turabian is #3?

The Top 100 Library Books list is most interesting. Based on OCLC holdings, In Search of Excellence: Lessons from America's Best-run Companies by Thomas J. Peters and Robert H. Waterman, Jr. is #1 at 3,971. I was pleased to see that Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes was #7. Lots of Reference books in this list...only natural, I guess.

Fun posting. I think it's interesting that the list is heavy on semi-pop business practices books (like the two Peters books0. I'd attribute that to heavy crossover (academic AND public) appeal.

We need Billboard charts for library holdings!
