This book provides a comprehensive guide to developing law collections for institutional libraries, including those in prisons and correctional facilities. It offers recommendations for primary and secondary legal resources tailored to the needs of such libraries in all 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the United Kingdom. Each section includes suggested texts on statutes, case law, court rules, regulations, and legal commentaries, as well
as helpful web resources, addressing the specific legal needs of incarcerated individuals and institutional staff. More than a mere title list, this book also includes estimates for the cost of building the recommended collection, as well as the space to house it. Those estimates and information have been curated by state-specific contributing experts to make sure those tailored perspectives are represented. This resource is a practical tool for librarians and others working to create or enhance legal libraries in institutional settings.
