Inmate magazines

Magazines Galore
Magazines Galore

For the most part inmate directed magazines come and go, but we recently started getting a new magazine in our library.  Hopefully, Insider Magazine will stick around.  I am sure funding can be an issue in a lot of cases, but also staff who are willing to take the time to provide the magazine can be as well.  I have only seen a few copies, but so far, so good.  Interesting articles are spread throughout the publication, along with puzzles, humor, inmate poetry and art, and lets not forget advertisements.  However, major points for the advertisements as they are directed to inmates.  However, don’t think this magazine is a slouch in the literary department, the crossword puzzle is harder then it looks.  So for now I am reserving judgment (read waiting for inmate response), but I do believe it has been money well spent.
