The Commission operates the only specialised Human Rights Library in Malaysia. It offers a collection
of human rights materials to support the work of the Commission and other interested parties. The
collection comprises a wide range of books and journals, and archival resources.
To expand the services, the Commission decided during the year that all former members and staff of
the Commission may borrow materials. Members of public may make use of the reference material
on the premises.
