| contents | The Potential of a Library Media Program on Reducing Recidivism Rates among Juvenile Offenders Formby, Angela E. Paynter, Kelly Library Services Program Effectiveness Recidivism Juvenile Justice Correctional Institutions Libraries Youth Institutionalized Persons Librarians There are currently an estimated 1.1 million juveniles involved with the juvenile justice system. Of that steadily-climbing number, a high percentage will be rearrested, readjudicated, or recommitted to a facility, program, or group home. Although many researchers have studied the factors influencing juvenile criminology and recidivism rates in general in order to reduce these numbers, little is known about the possible influence that an active and thriving library media center may have on these adolescents. Therefore, this literature review will examine the possible connection between having a library media program available during a juvenile's incarceration and reducing juvenile delinquent recidivism rates. |
