Nonviolence International and the Rutgers University International Institute for Peace (IIP) are collaborating to create the Digital Library of Nonviolent Resistance, an open access online digital collection of training manuals and related material, such as reports on training workshops, tools, exercises, preparatory material for campaigns, and legal and direct action handouts.
This Digital Library includes materials from the 1960s onward, used in a wide variety of struggles, from the Anti-Nuclear, Peace, and U.S. Civil Rights movements to Occupy Wall Street, the Arab Spring, and Black Lives Matter.
The Digital Library includes annotation, keyword and text search capabilities, and will be continually updated through the inclusion of material used in future manifestations of people power across the globe.
Founded in 2011, the International Institute for Peace is a UNESCO Category II organization based at Rutgers University, Newark. We are dedicated to the promotion of research and education on peacebuilding and conflict transformation, and the cultivation of a culture of peace.
Waging Nonviolence partners with other organizations and publishes their work.
Hi,
Perhaps I’m missing something, but I didn’t see where there’s a link or anything to the digital nonviolence library. Is it live yet? Is there a way to be notified when it is?
Thank you!

Thanks for pointing that out! The link appears in the first paragraph now.
Hello Dr. Schock, thanks for writing this and for taking the initiative of the Digital Library of Nonviolent Resistance. It is very useful.
Where might we find a link to the Digital Library you mentioned in your article. Thanks.
