Yan Peace Resource Center (AMTYPRC) is an integrated library system and resource center that holds historical documents, artifacts, and audio-visual files on the Philippine peace process that have been under the care and supervision of OPAPP since 1987 when it was still the Office of the Peace Commissioner. It also holds a collection of more than 3,000 print and non-print materials acquired from various local and international sources on peace and conflict resolution.
