Emergency Brake Sticking, Service/Parts Manual V70-XC70 2000

Okay... I am in the process of ordering new brakes all around and new rotors for the rear of our 2000 V70XC AWD/SE. We bought the car the other day, used. Anyway, the wife has been driving today/yesterday and noticed that it seemed like the brakes were sticking and making squealing noises. I drove today and see that she has been using the emergency brake (which she is used to doing), however, there is a lot of play in the emergency brake handle before it actuates and it seems that the emergency brake is sticking or stuck somewhat, although it does work its way free after a little driving... Any advice on how to tackle this issue without bringing it to the shop?

Also, where's the best place (online) to get a service manual and parts manual for this car?

Thanks in advance.
