The library of the Institute, established in December 1959 as a predecessor of the Institute, served the document supply of the Szombathely Teacher Training Institute. From 1974, it managed the libraries of 11 departmental depositories and the Bolyai János Practical School within the framework of the independent Szombathely Teacher Training College, and developed into the most important specialised library for pedagogy in the region. In 1977, a media library was established to support audiovisual training at the college.
