P R O J E C T G U I D E :
Adult Correctional
Facility Design Resources
N A A T A P
Native American and
I nt ro d u ct i o n
This project guide presents an annotated bibliography of resources that
may be useful to those planning and designing adult detention and correctional
facilities. Indeed, a multitude of literature pertaining to the
planning and design of jails exists, and this collection represents merely
a fraction of it. It is, however, intended to cover a broad range of
issues pertaining to planning and design. While the reference selections
made for this particular guide are geared mostly toward the planning
and design of jails, some documents that pertain to both juvenile
and adult facilities, and several documents that concern financing and
construction, are also included.
It is recommended that each Tribe’s planning and design team review
the brief descriptions of the documents contained in this project guide
and determine the relative merits of each. Then the sources that seem
most applicable to the project should be acquired to be used for the following
purposes:
■ To increase familiarity with “state of the art” jail architecture,
and with design issues and options
■ To inspire concepts and encourage creative problem solving
■ To share ideas and communicate effectively with other Tribal
participants, and with architects and consultants
The sources, which range in size from small booklets to large books, are
arranged alphabetically

Geared for representatives from Tribal and other governments’ planning

extremely useful during the design review process. The checklists pose
dozens of questions aimed to help ensure that the design of a jurisdiction’s jail meets that jurisdiction’s needs; and supports its mission,
intended operations and programs; is safe and secure; and appropriate
for its offender populations. Although primarily written for jails, most
of it is applicable to Tribal juvenile facilities and combined juvenile
and adult facilities too. Available in late 2002 from the National
Institute of Corrections Information Center.
