  • Law Libraries Which Offer Service to Prisoners. Appendix: Checklist of Law Books Recommended for Prisons in Each State. Check Lists Directories Institutional Libraries Law Libraries Library Collections Library Services Outreach Programs Prisoners Part 1 of this publication consists of a listing, by state, of law libraries which will respond to requests for legal information from prisoners. Services may include photocopies of needed statutes, cases, or other material; books on loan; and/or reference work. Citations include the name and address of the library, types of requests it will handle, and any limitations on or charges for service. Part 2 outlines the materials needed for a law library collection within a prison in each of the 50 states. For each state, two checklists of materials are provided, the first a minimum and the second, an expanded collection. Each checklist cites the titles of the appropriate statutes and legal reference tools, publishers, initial and upkeep prices of series, and the shelf space required to house the volumes. (SL)
