Mission Statement

Open Books is a non profit bookstore that sends books to Florida prison inmates on request. Proceeds from book sales support the Prison Book Project.

Description

Open Books is a non-profit, volunteer-run bookstore. Proceeds from the sale of books and donations support the Prison Book Project, operating since 2000. The Prison Book Project currently sends around 10,000 books each year to indigent inmates in Florida prisons, one of the largest prison systems in the country and one sorely lacking in-house book collections. The Prison Book Project currently serves approximately 2,000 inmates each year.
