The State of Pennsylvania is divided by Commonwealth Libraries into 29 geographic regions called districts. Within each district, the State Librarian designates one strong library as the District Center. The James V Brown Library is the District Center for the North Central Library District.

Other James V Brown Library staff work to provide interlibrary loan, an ebooks and audios platform and other services for district member libraries.
