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.

MACC, situated in Stringtown, has a rich history dating back to the 1930s. Originally established as a sub-prison of the nearby Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester, MACC served as a facility to segregate first-time convicts from OSP inmates while providing agricultural work opportunities on its farm.

Over the years, MACC underwent several transformations, serving various purposes such as a sexually transmitted disease hospital, a German prisoner of war camp, and a school. In 1956, it reverted to functioning as a farm, later transitioning into a medium-security prison known as Stringtown Correctional Center in 1977. In 1986, the facility was renamed in honor of a former warden.

Today, MACC accommodates over 800 inmates, continuing its legacy of providing correctional services while adapting to evolving needs and circumstances.
