SOME THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND...​

  • No prison will accept a book with spiral binding or with underlining or writing in it. If there is a name written on the front page, it can be blacked out or the page can be torn out.

  • Out of respect for the inmates, we do not send books which are musty, stained, or outdated.

  • We cannot use encyclopedias or travel guides, or heavy hardback textbooks.

  • Before emptying your shelves and bringing us everything you have, please consider the above information. We spend many volunteer hours sorting through books we don't need.

  • Please keep in mind that 90% of our readers are men and are thus interested in fiction and nonfiction written for and about men.
