    Abstract
    Traces the growth of the computer-readable database industry from the 1970s to the present. From 1975-1994 databases have grown by a factor of 28,2 (from 301 to 8.776), producers have grown by a factor of 13 (from 200 to 2.778), and vendors have grown by a factor of 15,1 (from 105 to 1.691). The number of records contained in the databases has grown even more dramatically by a factor of 120,5. Statistics are also presented on databases in terms of form of representation; major subject classes; percentage produced in USA; and success in the market place in terms of usage and revenues. The article introduces a theme issue on secondary publishing database statistics
