Fully computerised, the IRC holds more than 6,000 books on its shelves covering a wide variety of subjects and subscribes to 60 national and international journals and periodicals. Additional features include article indexing, newspaper clippings, a text database for selected newspaper articles, and the latest retrieval techniques to search for a particular book, subject or article within the IRC database.
