Prison Libraries
I found this flickr set via boingboing.
Fans of Found magazine will love this collection of photos of things found in prison library books.
If you wish to help out a prison library, check out the Prison Library Project:
Since its founding in 1973, The Prison Library Project has grown into a sizable volunteer organization with a distinct vision and identity. The purpose of the Project is to supply books free of charge to any inmate who requests them. We try to provide an ongoing invitation to prisoners to embrace personal responsibility, growth, and a deeper appreciation for the world of books, ideas, and education.
The jail library group also offers services to prisoners. Watch the slideshow to see what they do.
