Please note that the law books are for your reference and may not be removed from the law library for any reason. Removal of law books and reference material will result in disciplinary action. A photocopy machine is available in the Education Department. It may be utilized by an inmate with the purchase of a copy card from the Commissary. A request for withdrawal of funds form will only be utilized for copies for inmates recently admitted (within 30 days) and other extenuating circumstances by which Commissary may have been missed (i.e. court date, hospital trip, etc.) Copies cost fifteen cents each. Leisure books can be checked out of the main law libraries during each floor’s respective library session. Inmates confined in SHU can request leisure books through the appropriate request form.
