Am Oved ("A Working People") is an Israeli publishing house. It was founded in 1942 by Berl Katznelson who was also its first Editor in Chief. It was created as an organ of the Histadrut, Israel's federation of Labor, with a goal of publishing books that would "meet the spiritual needs of the working public." It's most well known series is "Sifriyah La'am" (People's Library), a series of paperback fiction, similar in many respects to Penguin's.
