One successful service of the Peace Palace Library(PPL) is the so-called email alerting service (select one subject and subscribe). Everyone can subscribe to this service by simply indicating which subject he/she is interested in and of course by providing an email address to which the alerts should be emailed. There are some 55 different subjects, ranging from “The State as Subject of International Law” to the “Grotius collection”.

The Peace Palace Library has been long in the possession of a unique and important collection on peace movements from the period 1899-1940. This 'Peace Movement Collection', with about 1500 items, consists of all kinds of materials like brochures, pamphlets, letters and photographs from pacifist organizations and people striving for world peace.
The library has started to put a selection of 100 items from this collection online by uploading the digitized images, made with help of the Metamorfoze project of the National Library of the Netherlands, to Flickr.
