The shop is repeatedly noted for its Arabic book collection, including titles for children and educational use.

Bin Sougat Mall is reported to have ample parking, and one review says the shop is around a ten-minute walk from Centrepoint Metro Station.

Esaad and Fazaa card holders are reported to receive special discounts.

Tips for a Better Visit
Check hours. Confirm the closing time before travelling; one customer arrived expecting 23:30 but found the shop closed at 22:00.
Ask availability. For a specific item, ask staff to check beyond the counter: a numbering machine was found after a further shelf search.
Use parking. If driving, Bin Sougat Mall is reported to have ample parking; Centrepoint Metro is described as about a ten-minute walk away.
Check online prices. Compare the online listing with the in-store price before buying, since one review reported a substantial difference.
Call cautiously. If you are travelling from far away to find a particular book, do not rely on the phone being answered; verify through another channel if possible.
Ask for variety. For sticker label paper, ask what options are currently in stock because one customer found the selection limited.

The Bottom Line
Dubai Library Distributors’ Bin Sougat Center Branch is a useful Al Rashidiya stop for school and university supplies, office stationery, art materials and books. Reviews point to a particularly strong Arabic book selection, including children’s and education-related titles, while the broad stationery range covers school projects and office needs. Printing and photocopying are also established uses, from a few pages to bulkier jobs.
The branch sits in Bin Sougat Mall, where reviewers mention ample parking and a relaxed, spacious setting. Centrepoint Metro Station is described as roughly a ten-minute walk away. Families may appreciate that children enjoy browsing, and one customer specifically found looped yarns there when they were unavailable elsewhere.
Esaad and Fazaa card holders are reported to receive special discounts. Service is not entirely consistent. Some customers praise helpful, efficient staff, while others describe rude or unhelpful interactions, including trouble getting a book query answered by phone.
Check stock before making a long trip, especially for niche items such as sticker label paper, and compare online prices with the in-store figure. Also verify opening hours: one visitor expected a 23:30 closing but found the branch closed at 22:00.
