It published 50 new books on culture, history, art, heritage, literature, science, and children’s and young adults’ books that were written by Jordanian, Arab and international authors.

The Jordanian Family Library’s titles are sold at a reasonable price, ranging between 25 and 35 Jordanian ‘Qirsh’ or piasters (less than USD 0,50). The books are available at 50 distribution centres in different Jordanian cities.
