During the past two decades the Foundation continued to publish or supported the publication of a number of scientific and cultural books, directly or in cooperation with other institutions. The outcome of that effort was the publication of a number of compositions that relate to economic, scientific, technical, intellectual and heritage issues, in addition to some encyclopedias and translations.

However, since 1997, publishing has become anchored in the Foundation’s core agenda, within particular plans and fixed guidelines. Since then, it has been decided to implement a solid plan to publish works emanating from activities held by Abdul Hameed Shoman Cultural Forum in book format for documentation purposes and to expand their benefits to a larger audience, in cooperation with local publishing houses that have Arab and international extensions. In this context, the Foundation has issued tens of books that dealt with various subjects related to local, Arab and international issues.
