Default Reaching Out

We sent out a ton of letters today. One to every Department of Correction's Director, Commissioner, Secretary, etc. We’re inviting every state to participate in our Books Behind Bars program. (http://www.writeaprisoner.com/books-behind-bars/)

We have been contacted by one university and another county offering old text books but we didn’t have a prison needing them at that time. I think if everyone starts pulling for this, we’ll be able to stock a lot of prison libraries and teachers with the materials they need. Just wanted to give you guys an update.

Adam

Was just wondering how far you have gotten with this project Adam, and is it still continuing to grow?

I think your information about Nebraska Department of Correctional Services DCS Libraries is out of date. I looked online & found it to be this:

Nebraska Department of Correctional Services
Building 15, P. O. Box 94661
Folsom and West Prospector Place
Lincoln, NE 68509-4661
Erin Egan-OsBurn
Library Coordinator
EEgan@dcs.state.ne.us
( 402) 479-5757
Fax (402) 479-5819

Or I could be wrong. Please find the correct address & phone number so I can drop books off when I'm in either town.

Thanks,
CO's Wife
