The resource library at the Northwestern Women's Centre is a special library which focuses on women. The library contains reports, manuals, videos, journals, periodicals, and books which pertain to women's issues or are of interest to women. Our library covers a wide range of topics including health, feminist theory, parenting, poverty, work, relationships, herstory, education, arts and literature, northern women, first nations women, lesbians, aging, etc. We also have a modest collection of women authored novels.

Pamphlets and more:

We have many pamphlets and information booklets with valuable information. They generally fall into two categories: informational pamphlets and local agency brochures. These valuable resources cover a wide variety of topics and issues relevant to women. This list includes child and custody access, divorce, separation, stalking, legal aid and much more.
