The Parliamentary Librarians are actively involved in the collection and development of reference materials and provide lending services as well as disseminate reference information to Members of Parliament and their Legislative Assistants and secretariat staff.

From its humble beginnings serving only 32 Members in 1955, the librarians are now expected to be IT savvy to be able to meet the more sophisticated and diversified information needs of Members these days. In this regard, the Library is well equipped with up-to-date computer technology with access to vast electronic networks including Reuters, Newslink, Statlink and Lexis-Nexis.

The Library has accumulated over 20,000 volumes of books, journals, parliamentary publications and papers, legislation and a collection of press clippings to allow for the quick and accurate provision of research services and current news.
