Send Books & Magazines
Many correctional facilities let families send books and magazines to an inmate — but almost all of them require the items to be brand-new and shipped directly from the retailer. Anything sent secondhand or repackaged at home is usually rejected at the mailroom. Ordering from a retailer that ships direct is the standard way to get reading material in.
Typical requirements (confirm with Hopkins County Jail first):
- Must ship new, directly from the retailer — you can't forward it yourself.
- Softcover / paperback only at most facilities (hardcovers are commonly banned).
- No used or third-party marketplace sellers — new copies only.
- Limits on quantity per package and how many packages may be pending.
- Address it to the inmate's full committed name and ID number.
- Use the facility's mailroom address, which can differ from the public address.
Mailing address on file for this facility:
298 Rosemont Street Sulphur Springs, TX 75482
Always include the inmate's full name and ID, and confirm whether books go to a separate mailroom address.
Before you order: book policies vary by facility and change often, and a growing number
of jails accept no physical books at all (reading is provided through electronic tablets instead).
Confirm Hopkins County Jail's current policy
by calling 903-438-4055 so your package isn't returned.
