About us

Since the foundation of our publishing house, Aser Al-Kotob, and even years before that on our eminent Facebook group, we set our mission to facilitate the readers' journey and make it easer for them to be in contact with their favorite authors. And although our ambitions and goals were larger than a Facebook group, our relationship with our readers has been ignited and fostered there. And by establishing our publishing house, on the 9th of September 2014, we could aid our readers in buying their preferred books and find them in every bookstore. We have, since then, published around 300 original Arabic titles, and around 70 translated titles, and we aim to level up our rates in the next couple of years. 
You will find us yearly in 9 national, 14 regional, and 3 international book-fairs as well as in our stationary book shops around Egypt. We are now spreading further to many other locations around Egypt not just the main cities.
