Help or not help prisons?
I don't know. In the village of Ikovka there is a zone, it has a library, and the library does not have enough books. The villains are sitting in prison, without irony. The mode is strict, so the photo is dull. Life, in fact, is also dull. We decided to help with the equipment of the library. We decided - they helped .
For what?
After all, they are sitting there not for hacker hacks and a “pirate” video, even their Khodorkovsky is not. Severe men are sitting and, in fact, things should suffer for atrocities and other indecency. But personally, from these suffering is neither hot nor cold ... They just sent books, who did not want to - did not send. Books are received, executed and read. Of course, in the soul there is hope that someone will read and understand that instead of a gop-stop cold winter nights, it was worth going to study, make a career, become Minister of Defense and lower the country in full ... although this is also an option for an amateur.
To the leadership of the FSIN:
Gentlemen, jailers, let them put them a computer in the library. Pour literature from torrents there. Fiction is, of course, great. But there is a lot of materials of a scientific and practical nature. I suppose that the brochure "how to build a house" is better than the collected works of Leo Tolstoy. Maybe someone, really pulling up the theory, will understand that it is easier and faster to earn than under old age on the bones of bones to rattle. It is worth taking into account that it is easier to navigate than s/k are interested in, the choice is more, and practical literature is much better than reading Anna Karenina, sitting on the bunks in the ovkka pound.
Yes, and thanks for the human attitude to the leadership of the FKU IK-6. These are not just words for view. It was said that the authorities are sane, in each case, he does not grab for the Dubier, conducts educational activities as much as possible. By the way, photos from the FSIN website but the Kurgan region. A good site, by the way, recommend .
If the leadership reads this opus, then let him contact in any way-we will figure out how to design and send a computer for the library.
And now the story, what and how, first -hand:
641316 Kurgan region, p. Ikovka, FKU IK-6
Library
Hello, Sergey! Thank you. Great. Subscription, reading room - everything is like adults. They went through literature on different lists (100 best books of the 20th century, etc.) - a whole rack. We attract readers to him. Hard. We have a camp for those who were previously convicted. There are no economic and political. Readbakes. However, there are many good people. And for those who want to increase their educational level, recently there is a great library. Thank you and everyone who took part.

Thanks to everyone who responded and sent books. Unfortunately, I can’t name everyone by names, simply because the parcels open, inspect, books are thrown to us. From whom the package is not known to us; However, the main thing is that books reach the library.

The book fund is not only increased, but, more importantly, it has become readable - there is a choice. We selected books on the lists: the hundred best books of the 20th century, books recommended for reading to each RAS, according to Times, Gardian, etc. - a whole rack turned out.
I'll continue tomorrow.

About readers: The most popular genres are fantasy and criminal Russian fiction. For many, reading here is a departure from reality, killing time.

Nevertheless, there is his reader with classics and modern prose, philosophy and psychology, poetry. Those for whom the book is the opportunity to understand yourself, to understand others, to become a little better. Given who we are and where are there, it seems to me very important.

The atmosphere of the library is complemented by the musical background, the Orpheus radio and discs with instrumental and classical music. It is worth noting that at the disposal of readers a large number of spiritual literature, but mainly Orthodox.

All this became a reality thanks to everyone who made efforts. And we still ask to help with books and discs at the previous address, there is also a person in Moscow who comes here and can bring books if sending by mail is impossible for financial or other reasons (contact tel. In PM).

MORALITY:
So send books/equipment/computers and so on to prison or not to send? They sent it. Who was bad - like anyone.
Do you know what the most interesting discovery is when you cooperate with the prison system? There, too, people sit, and people also work. Quite sane, and many of them understand that spending a term of distance learning, on qualifications/profession is much better than to indulge in thieves romance from boredom. I repeat, no one builds any illusions, everything understands everything.
Thank you, people.
