The following is a listing of the library's resources on mental health issues.
 

BROWSING AREAS:

The DPA uses the Library of Congress classification system. Books on mental health, mental health law, and psychology can be found in several areas. The two largest areas to browse are RC 341 - RC 560 (for books on clinical psychology, including diagnostics and treatment) and KF 480 (for mental health law). There are, however, numerous other relevant books with different call numbers. These are best located with the help of the library catalog.

BOOK LIST:

All DPA staff have borrowing rights in the main library. Staff wishing to borrow books held in a field office will need to contact that office directly. People not affiliated with the DPA may also be allowed to borrow. This is decided on a case-by-case basis.
