Librairie du Liban was founded in 1944 by Messrs Khalil and Georges Sayegh. Our company has established itself over the last fifty years as the major Arab World publisher with local companies in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, the Sudan and Egypt with the rest of the Arab World market covered from our Head Office near Beirut. We also have an associate company, Balberry Publishing Ltd, handling our international publishing and negotiation from London. Librairie du Liban Publishers list now consists of over five hundred dictionaries and reference titles, three hundred Arabic Ladybird books, three hundred Butterfly books, eighty Assanabil books and a multitude of children's books.
As we have grown, we have developed a number of highly profitable links with international publishers. We have been the agents for the Longman Group (now Pearson Education) in the Arab World since 1944, and also market and distribute on behalf of many other famous international publishers. We have also developed joint-venture projects with major companies.
Since 1970, we have expanded our licensing operation, and have so far contracted with international publishers such as Ladybird, Reed International and Doubleday on Arabic editions of their products. We have also contracted with the leading British publisher Dorling Kindersley Ltd for over one hundred and fifty titles. We are the only publisher in the Arab World to have expanded our business dramatically in this area, and this is representative of our policy to be market leaders not followers.
We have wide experience in creating books throughout our operation to international standards of authorship, editorial content and design. The key to such success is a high level of efficiency, coupled with speed and low overhead costs in the preparation of books and related products. «View Less
