Zusammenfassung:Griffin talks about theological libraries in prison. For many decades, prisons have provided legal libraries along with leisure and listening libraries as part of self-improvement and educational programs. The importance of libraries in the US prison system is observed in the inclusion of library services among two of the eleven Inmate Rights and Responsibilities as found in the Federal Bureau of Prisons Inmate Information Handbook. He also mentions the challenge of collection development for a prison-based theological library.
