:NIPR (formerly known as the Northern Ireland Publications Resource) is Northern Ireland’s '''National Collection of Northern Ireland Publications''', a systematic collection and catalogue of all books, journals, pamphlets and reports published in Northern Ireland. As Northern Ireland has no National Library, no local institution is legally responsible for collecting all material published in Northern Ireland. Prior to the creation of NIPR, there was no reliable way of finding out what was published in Northern Ireland, who was collecting it, and where it was held.
