Useful Links

by ghing

Here are some useful sites that will help you do your job at Pages.  Thanks for all your hard work.

  • Inmate Locator -  Follow the links on this site to see if an inmate is still at the location on the return address of their letter or to find out the facility name for an inmate when they've only provided the address (or vise versa).  You can also find the contact information for facilities if you need to contact one about returns.
  • Pages Database - This project, code named Testament, is the replacement for the paper card catalog.  Use this to log books that have been sent to people, print invoices and labels, and to track returned packages.
  • Package Invoice, Package Label - Invoices and labels can now be printed from within the Testament database.
  • Pages Wiki - Find or document useful information about how to do things at Pages.
  • CiviCRM - Record volunteer contact information, volunteer hours, lookup community partner contact information, and send e-mail updates to volunteers/partners.
