MDOC ban on non-English dictionaries
by Meghan McGowan 19 Jul '22

19 Jul '22

Hi everyone! As you may have seen, NPR recently reported <https://www.npr.org/2022/06/02/1102164439/michigan-prisons-ban-spanish-and-…> Michigan Department of Corrections facilities have restricted the use of and/or banned non-English language dictionaries. Dictionaries and other reference materials are some of the most important foundational materials in a prison library. Dictionaries also are among the most requested materials by incarcerated people both internally and to outside groups who send books. We (concerned library workers and community members) authored an open letter demanding MDOC reverse this ban. <https://medium.com/@norton.nicholasj/dont-ban-dictionaries-michigan-departm…>Please consider signing on to this letter and sharing it with your networks as we work for a more equitable and humane prison library system. Thank you for your consideration! With gratitude, Meghan McGowan -- Meghan McGowan she | they
