The Resource Center of the Alliance Française du Manitoba has about 3000 documents for a broad audience: novels, dictionaries and encyclopedias, comic books, feature films and documentaries (DVDs), music CDs, and French as a second language learning materials.

Since 2008, the highlight of this Resource Center is the audio-visual fund. More than 500 DVD titles are part of the catalogue, most having with English subtitles. These films are French, French-Canadian and other French-speaking (Belgian, Swiss, African and the Middle Eastern) productions.
