    • Abstract:
      The article discusses how libraries in the U.S. are providing services for people that are incarcerated. Topics covered include the findings of Jacob Kang-Brown and Ram Sabramanian's Vera Institute report "Out of Sight: The Growth of Jails in Rural America," the challenge of sorting information about library services to people who are or have been incarcerated and their families, and way to support the families of people who are incarcerated or recently released.
