Abstract EN

To this day, the book remains the most common mean, the most effectiveway of transmitting knowledge and spreading science.

Despite the sweeping oftechnology to space, the book has never lost its place, even if its forms have altered, and its methods have changed.

Since the man knew the paper and used it, and since he sought to use thismaterial cognitively, the books are reproduced from one another and inheritedgenerations from one generation to the other, conveying through books its cultureand human experience, thus opening bridges of knowledge and culturalcommunication between the nations and the people, where neither differentlanguages, nor remote distances and differing habits prevented the promotion ofbooks or their transmission from one region to another or from one country toanother.

Besides wars, trade, and trips have played an important role in increasingthe book's mobility and spread, as was the religion in addition to the mostimportant factors of the prevalence of the book and its spread.

The talk about the book draws us into several related ramifications, as wetalk about it as a cultural component that opens many questions to us about thecrafts that were associated with the manufacture of paperwork, engraving andbinding, and the line and decoration, and the literature of these crafts and tools, and the institutions of the existence of the book and its preservation, And themosques and corners of the mosques, and the professions that embraced it, such astrade, books and education, not to mention activities that could have affected itnegatively or positively, such as religion and trips, sedition and wars and naturaldisasters.

We will go far from our point of view to talk about this, that partially inthis subject, it is partly "Laghouat" with a long history of civilization, a firmness inscience, and jihad for knowledge and culture.

Now the question before us is: - How can we imagine the history of books and libraries in Laghouat? What are the illuminations that help us discover the shadows in this world?
