Book 'Em - Pittsburgh's Books to Prisoners
Changes

Since then more than 30 different prison book programs have been established, although many have had short life-spans. Currently there are more than twenty similar projects in the United States and Canada.[1] In keeping with the anarchist cultural roots of the concept there is no centralized national organization, and each group runs autonomously. However the groups communicate common issues and solutions through an electronic mailing list created in 2006[2] and have held national conferences, the first being held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 2003, the second in Urbana-Champaign, Illinois, in 2007.[3]
