The Lactation Resource Centre (LRC) specialises in providing the community and health care industry with comprehensive and readily useable information resources on all aspects of human lactation. We facilitate the further understanding of the scientific basis of lactation through education and research.

The LRC was established by the Australian Breastfeeding Association (then Nursing Mothers' Association of Australia) in 1989, and has grown rapidly to become one of the most comprehensive collections of breastfeeding information in the world, with a collection of more than 20,000 articles and books, videos and case histories.
