From an inmate requesting books on electrical wiring: “Myself and other inmate electricians will study every page. I teach both female and male inmates electric & electronics. Several are now working on the streets as electricians.”
COVID Schedule:
We are currently closed to most volunteering. We are still filling book requests. Limited volunteer opportunities are available. All volunteers must sign up in advance. We will monitor and follow all government guidelines. Contact volunteer@prisonbookprogram.org for more details or to learn how to sign up.
Financial donations are the single factor that limits the number of people we can serve. Just $3 is the average cost of mailing a package of carefully selected books from our library!
