Mr. Ahmed Amin was the Chairman of the Board of the Academic Library for Printing and Publishing. According to a press obituary, he passed away after a long career in the fields of thought and publishing. He played a role in printing and publishing encyclopedias and historical and intellectual books related to Egyptian and Arab history.
📌 This Ahmed Amin should not be confused with the well-known thinker and man of letters Ahmed Amin (1886–1954), a prominent historical figure in Arab culture. It is therefore important to distinguish between the two to avoid confusion of names.
📝 The Academic Library for Printing and Publishing:
The house published books and encyclopedias in the fields of history, thought, and culture, including works concerned with documenting Egyptian history and the Nasserist era, as mentioned in press obituaries.
Some readers and observers consider it part of a group of publishing houses that were more active in producing reference and encyclopedic works rather than operating as a widely commercial publishing house.
To date, no official page or verified website for the publishing house is available, and most of the information we have comes from news reports and newspapers rather than official sources.
Based on news references to Ahmed Amin’s role as Chairman of the Board, the publications likely included:
🔸 Historical and intellectual encyclopedias.
🔸 Books documenting the Nasserist period in Egypt.
🔸 Possibly intellectual texts, academic studies, or cultural works serving researchers and students.
📌 As of now, there is no officially published list of the titles issued by the house in a reliable electronic database.
