Textbooks for Junior Technical Schools.
The Craftsman's Library consisted of books written for students at the Lower Technical Schools who were studying to become mechanical or electrical technicians. They were written—as, in fact, were all of the Foundation’s books— by experts with teaching and professional experience, and their content was fully aligned with the current curriculum.
The books measured 14 x 21 cm to make them easy for the artisans to use, and they were bound in a special plastic so that the books could withstand the specific conditions prevailing in the workshops and garages where the students worked. The series was printed in a deep green color, which is why these books became known to students and teachers as the Eugenides Foundation’s “green books.” Despite the simplicity of their writing, these books continued to serve as a source of useful information for school graduates even as they entered the workforce.
Between 1957 and 1975, 32 degrees were awarded in these two fields. The books in this library are no longer published by the Eugenides Foundation, ever since the Lower Technical Schools were abolished.
