While incarcerated, reading is often the best use of time. Please note that books and magazines, puzzles, and word searches ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. Prisons and jails enforce this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate. You may, however, send letters and selfies to inmates with this easy-to-use app, packages starting at only $8.00.
Riverview Correctional Facility, situated in St. Lawrence County, is a medium-security state prison operated by the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision. Initially established in 1988 with a capacity for 700 inmates, Riverview, alongside Cape Vincent Correctional Facility, was constructed under a special agreement between New York City and the state, with both facilities resembling state-built ones like Bare Hill and Franklin. Riverview currently operates with a working capacity of 882, with ownership expected to revert to the state after seven years of operation.
