Send us Postal Mail
If a friend or loved one of yours is incarcerated (in Illinois only - we only serve people incarcerated in Illinois) and would like to request books, please tell them to write to us using the following address. This is the only way we are equipped to accept book requests for incarcerated people.

UC Books to Prisoners Box 515 Urbana IL 61803

If you would like to mail financial donations or book donations, please only use United States Postal Service as it is the only shipping method that can be delivered to a Post Office Box.

We only serve people incarcerated in Illinois. If you are interested in connecting an incarcerated individual who is not in Illinois with free books, please refer to this list of other programs.
