No charge, commitment or order is created. This records anonymous interest to review a facility's book-delivery rules.
Three very different stages.
Someone has reviewed the receiving address, source requirements, format restrictions and available quantity rules—with links and dates.
Only a verified vendor, actual paperback listing, approved delivery route and reviewed purchasing terms make a facility eligible for checkout.
Prison 365 is published and the paperback ordering URL is connected. Institutional acceptance and delivery arrangements still vary. Amazon fulfillment cannot be treated as institution-approved without a specific receiving-route check. Therefore this site currently accepts no payment or donation.
The next chapter belongs to everyone.

The directory contains official-source facilities from the United States Bureau of Prisons, HM Prison and Probation Service in England and Wales, and state authorities in New South Wales and Queensland. The database stores source links, update timestamps, per-facility rule-review fields and an audit history. State prisons, county jails and international lists will be added only as distinct authoritative registries are reconciled.
