The New York Times Best Seller list
''The New York Times'' Best Seller list is widely considered the preeminent list of best-selling books in the United States.〔John Bear, ''The #1 New York Times Best Seller: intriguing facts about the 484 books that have been #1 New York Times bestsellers since the first list, 50 years ago'', Berkeley: Ten Speed Press, 1992.〕〔Rep. Billy Tauzin (R-LA), Chairman, Subcommittee on Telecommunications, Trade, and Consumer Protection, said "the ''New York Times'' best-seller list is widely considered to be one of the most authoritative lists of which books are selling the most in American bookstores" during his (Opening Statement for Hearing on H.R. 1858 ) on June 15, 1999.〕 Published weekly in ''The New York Times Book Review'',〔 the best-seller list has been published in the ''Times'' since October 12, 1931.〔
==History==

Although the first best seller list in America was published in 1895, in ''The Bookman'', a best seller list was not published in ''The New York Times'' until 36 years later with little fanfare on October 12, 1931.〔''The New York Times'', October 12, 1931. 19〕 It consisted of five fiction and four non-fiction books for New York City only.〔 The following month the list was expanded to eight cities, with a separate list published for each city.〔 By the early 1940s, fourteen city-lists were included. A national list was created on April 9, 1942, in ''The New York Times Book Review'' (Sundays) as a supplement to the regular city lists (Monday edition).〔 The national list was ranked according to how many times the book appeared in the city lists.〔 A few years later, the city lists were eliminated entirely leaving only the national ranking list, which was compiled according to "reports from leading booksellers in 22 cities".〔 This methodology of ranking by bookseller sales figures remains to this day although the exact data compilation process is a trade secret and has evolved over time.〔
By the 1950s, the ''Times'' list had become the leading best seller list for book professionals to monitor, along with ''Publishers Weekly''.〔 In the 1960s and 70s, mall-based chain bookstores B. Dalton, Crown Books, and Waldenbooks came to the forefront with a business model of selling newly published (frontline) titles, in particular mass-market appeal best-sellers, thus placing increased emphasis on the ''New York Times'' list for book readers and book sellers.〔
