Abstract	Despite resurgent public interest in censorship issues, research and reporting on prison censorship policies remain largely localized, with few wide-scale, systematic studies of the issue. There is good reason for this: the highly decentralized nature of the carceral system in the United States and the practical challenges in discovering and navigating correctional policy documentation complicate such an undertaking. In an effort to make available policy information more accessible, to better understand the national landscape of prison censorship policy, and to develop a sense of how censorship policies might impact higher education in prisons, Ithaka S+R examined media review directives across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. This research was made possible with grant funding provided by Ascendium Education Group and is one facet of a larger study of technology and censorship in higher education in prisons. It is the authors' hope that the findings will be of interest to state Departments of Correction (DOC), as well as researchers and advocates. (ERIC).
