Am I able to order books and magazines to ship to a correctional facility?
Many correctional facilities have their own guidelines, so we recommend you confirm with the facility prior to placing your order to ensure a smooth delivery. Some of the restrictions which are universal are that the books must be PAPERBACK (hardbound books are not allowed,) no more than 3 books may be shipped at one time, you must use the inmate’s name and ID number as well as the name of the Correctional facility in the address line, and orders may only be shipped via USPS. Some orders will be rejected upon arrival due to the content of the books and are often not returned. Once the order is sent we are unable to facilitate returns for this merchandise.
