    Books Beyond Bars

    Mission statement.

    Books Beyond Bars (formerly the Nidorf Collective) consists of graduate students, faculty, and alumni from UCLA's Department of Information Studies that are committed to bringing high-interest books to young people living at the Barry J. Nidorf Juvenile Detention Center. Our volunteers organize book drives and conduct weekly book-talking groups where they lead discussions about books and give out reading materials for the youth to keep.
