The Noah’s Ark Resource Library and Advisory Service provides resources for loan to child care services, building on their capacity to provide quality inclusive childcare.

The Resource Library and Advisory Service is staffed by experienced professionals who assist with the selection of resources, provide professional advice and, in consultation with the Professional Support Service Providers (PSSP), Children's Services Networks, Inclusion Support Agencies assess and research the up to date resources for the children's services industry.

Eligible Queensland child care services who are members of the PSCQ (as defined in the Inclusion and Professional Support Program) may borrow these resources.

Noah's Ark Resource Library and Advisory Service is funded through the Department of Education Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) and manages the Library resources on behalf of the Professional Support Co-Ordinating Unit, Queensland.

PSCQ suggests that services familiarise themselves with The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) as "it is expected that early childhood settings will need to provide evidence of their use of the Early Years Learning Framework in designing and delivering their early learning programs".
