SIS has a small but growing resource centre. It houses a collection of publications; including monographs, articles, reports, conference papers, newspaper cuttings, pamphlets and audio-visual materials.

The resource centre was established for the following reasons:
# To develop a centre that provides and promotes progressive Islam and women's rights within the religious framework;

# To collect materials which are not readily available locally, specifically in relation to gender and Islam;

# To provide alternative reading materials by progressive academics and/or writers.
