Change-Makers: Librarians Bring Books and Answers to Rikers

As part of our Change-Makers Series, Sarah Ball, Louise Stamp and Emily Jacobson discuss their work at the New York Public Library’s branch on Rikers Island. They provide a crucial service to library patrons who are often overlooked-- men and women who are in jail. Emily also runs the Reference by Mail program, where people all over the country who are incarcerated mail in questions and Emily and her team answer.

This segment is guest hosted by Jonathan Capehart.
