Please consider purchasing a book off these bookstore partner wishlists so that PLP can reach the max matching grant amount! If you’re in the Bay Area, books purchased at the local bookstores listed below with PLP displays will also be matched by the grant. Stop by and check them out. Bookstores are the best!

We’re happy to share some of the recent thank you letters PLP has received from book recipients. Many of them are now posted around our library for volunteers to browse. It’s a pleasure to know books are “saving lives” behind bars.
Prisoners Literature Project is an inclusive, all-volunteer, grassroots nonprofit whose purpose is to encourage reading, the pursuit of knowledge, and self-determination among incarcerated people. By sending free reading materials to those behind bars, PLP aims to foster learning and critical thinking and help prepare people to lead successful lives after incarceration. We believe that all people have a right to read.
Please consider donating to PLP or volunteering your time (if you live in the Bay Area, CA!) to help us answer letters from prisoners who write us from all over the United States.
