Author: Big House Books
Big House Books is a non-profit, volunteer organization that sends free books by request to prisoners in Mississippi correctional facilities in order to promote literacy and be a vehicle of change for prison reform.
Things we need
We currently are not accepting general book donations, but we do need the following:
- Daily planners (no spiral bound)
- Greg Isles books
- Urban Fiction books
- All the books in these photos (except the ones that are crossed out. We found those! 😃)
Your donations to BHB make it possible for us to help librarians like Jeff in the Leake County Correctional Facility Library! He needed a book and CD in order to fix their library system software, and we were able to purchase a used copy for him to work with. Thank you!!
BHB Featured on Mississippi Roads
We were thrilled that BHB volunteer and Mississippi Roads producer Scott Bradfield invited us to be a part of a show all about books! Check out the full episode here.
New year, new calendars
Happy New Year, friends!
We get many requests for calendars. If you have any soft cover 2019 calendars or planners, we could use them! We are not able to send in spiral bound books.
Shirts are back in stock.
Lots of sizes and colors! Each purchase sends 3 packages of books to prisoners, and helps us spread the word.
You can purchase by clicking here, at a book packing party, or come see us on Saturday, September 29th at Wellsfest to buy one in person.
