The Prisoners Forum is a section of ALA ASCLA. It consists of a group of librarians who provide services to prisoners in adult and juvenile facilities. The group provides a great network services on line through the ALA website, Prison-L
At the summer conference in Anaheim, several librarians presented the program:
Nuts and bolts of building a public library and
jail/prison partnership
For me it is always great to see colleagues from across the country who work in the same environment and have the same passion for special library services.

Prison librarians provide information that meets the information, recreational, lifelong learning, and transitional needs of prisoners, preparing them to be successful ex offenders.

Hello
I started visiting your blog and found it really interesting.I was wondering if you would be interested in creating a profile on Glipho.Its a social publishing engine for bloggers/writers wherein you can promote your blog and also follow other writers/bloggers,We have a variety of categories like travel,society,fashion,lifestyle etc where you can promote your blog posts.
If your blog is powered by Blogger,Wordpress or Tumblr,you can import posts to Glipho from your existing blog without affecting it at all.Further you can attach twitter,facebook,Google + accounts to your Glipho profile and promote your blog on a larger scale.You can also connect your Instagram,Flickr or picasa accounts to drag and drop your photos into content.
I’d suggest having a look at the website www.glipho.com to see what it looks like :)

Happy writing!
Good Luck,

Those living in USA or some other nation so far as that is concerned would think that it’s difficult to keep associated with family and companions who are in prison, particularly if inmate phone rates are too high.When you go out too pick an inmate phone service distinguishing mark ensure it depends on most recent repetitive call steering innovation to convey best value edges.When you can pick the correct prison phone calls service to connect your inmate, you would have the capacity to make calls no sweat and at extremely shabby rates.
