You have to make resource items public instead internal.

To do this, in .resx file in solution explorer select Property Window (Alt+Enter) and in File Properties -> Custom Tool should be ResXFileCodeGenerator

Change this option to PublicResXFileCodeGenerator (if option don't show in dropdown field, don't worry aboit it, write/type PublicResXFileCodeGenerator in field)

After that resources member class will be generated with public modifier and you can access to it from any project that reference assembly.

I hope it can help you!
