The Human Resource Development and Training Library provides a special library health service to all government staff as well as to professionals outside of government.

Doctors, nurses and students from a variety of disciplines, administration staff and training facilitators are all welcome and could benefit from using the library. It is situated in the Karl Bremer Hospital grounds in Bellville. For those who cannot access the library physically, courier services may be utilised (see Courier Service link below).

The collection (books, journals, reports, pamphlets, videos) covers all aspects of health, from mental to emotional health, to diagnosis and management of disease, to research.

It explores conventional and complementary approaches to health and medicine. It also has sections on management, and human resource development and training. Pamphlets, posters and condoms are available for distribution in limited quantities.
