Reasons to Buy Our Books
#1: Our books will never contain contraband.
Every week I read articles from around the nation, about prisons finding liquefied drugs being absorbed in the pages of books, that will later be eaten or smoked by inmates. If your prison allows inmate families or public libraries to donate books, the possibility for the introduction of contraband could be a reality. We don't sell by titles, I select them all and all the Spanish paperbacks are in my warehouse. Once packed, sealed and secured, then I print the labels as to where the books are going. Our English paperback warehouse works in the same manner.
#2: Price is important!
With each title I cross reference the ISB number with the book company, "Amazon". Our prices are 1/3 to 2/3 cheaper than the Amazon listed price. This 2026 year we had to go up in price by .50 per books to off set the increase in shipping and the inflation rate. This is our first price increase in almost 5 years.

Welcome to Correctional Programs' New Website; or as we like to say Correctional Programs 2.0.
On January 1, 2006, Correctional Programs opened its doors to sell new Spanish paperback leisure reading materials to correctional facilities. Back then we had one publisher in Mexico City and only maintained 100 different Spanish titles and at that time 100 different titles was good enough to keep business going.
After 25 wonderful years working in corrections, I felt it was time to take this website and our products to a higher level and incorporate more of my experience in corrections to further assist educational and recreational departments to accomplish their goals at the lowest possible price.
We have all been through it, what cost center gets reprogrammed to cover the cost of overtime and staff coverage? Most state and federal policies protect Health Services, Food Services and Religious Services from budget reductions. Educational and Recreational budgets almost always take the hit and history will tell us many if not most disturbances occur because of inmate idleness or lack of programs. We hope that by keeping our costs low and knowing the corrections industry, we can help you.
