The James V. Brown Library is designated as a regional Resource Center for the Statewide Adoption Network. (SWAN)

The Statewide Adoption Network is a partnership among public and private agencies, the legal community and foster and adoptive parents sharing a mission to build a better adoption process in Pennsylvania.

The program serves children in the custody of county children and youth agencies who are awaiting adoption.

The Adoption Resource Collection consists of over 100 children's and adult books, magazines and other materials covering all aspects of adoption. A complete list of the materials contained in the collection is available. All titles are available for loan.

The Adoption Resource Collection is located adjacent to the Youth Services area at the basement level of the James V. Brown Library and is accessible when the Library is open.
