People in prison can write us a letter (via postal mail) and ask for books. The letter should include their name, address, and inmate ID number. It is best to request genres of books rather than specific titles. We also have an online book request form that can be used by people inside or their family and friends.
Prisoners may receive publications ordered by members of the public from the following Internet vendors, provided the publication is not used and is sent directly to the prisoner from the Internet vendors: Amazon. Barnes and Noble. Hamilton Books.
All books, magazines, and newspapers must be paperback and be sent via USPS, UPS, or FedEx using well-established bookstores (Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, etc.) or direct from the publisher. Any publications from family, friends, local bookstores, and books from internet sites are prohibited.
State laws, rather than local county laws, dictate whether you are eligible to change your name, but you must initiate your civil suit by filing documents with the Bexar County District Clerk. The Civil Filing Main Line phone number is (210) 335-2621. The Bexar County District Clerk's Office is located at 101 W.
