For incarcerated individuals, books provide one of the few windows into the outside world. Whether for entertainment or for education, jail libraries and those who work within them provide a lifeline. When beloved volunteer jail librarian Janet Gaye Wong was injured in a horse riding accident, her colleagues applied for an Act of Kindness grant from Random Acts to donate new library books in her honor!
