Book Request Forms
The Prison Library Project sends books, free of charge, to prisoners throughout the country. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to send a book as individual facility restrictions vary. We can only send books to state and federal prisons, we cannot send books to city or county jails. PLEASE NOTE: We are unable to send books to city or county jails.
