Louisiana Books 2 Prisoners is a 100% volunteer effort.

Hi, welcome to Louisiana Books 2 Prisoners!

Our workspace is closed. We are not hosting volunteers, and the book drop is closed for donations. We are still sending out books, but are not accepting volunteers or used books. Yes, even if you email us about it.

Louisiana Books 2 Prisoners is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to sending free reading material to people who are incarcerated. We send thousands of books every year to people who are locked up in jails, prisons, and ICE facilities in Louisiana, Alabama, and Arkansas. LAB2P is run by a small organizing collective, and we have a strong base of awesome volunteers who help make it all possible.

Important updates are posted here on this very website, on the sticky pad to the right, or you can check our Facebook page.

For info on requesting books,  click here. Please note that we don’t accept requests online, but we have a book request form you can print out which has all the information people need to write to us.
