¶9MEMORANDUM*

¶10Floyd H. Nelson and Charles A. Morris, prisoners at Pelican Bay State Prison, appeal pro se the district court's dismissal of their 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action challenging the prison's new policy for the Security Housing Unit's law library. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for abuse of discretion the district court's 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d) dismissal. See Trimble V. City of Santa Rosa, 49 F.3d 583, 584 (9th Cir.1995) (per curiam). We vacate the judgment and remand to the district court for consideration of the request: for a preliminary injunction. See Privitera v. California Bd. of Medical Quality Assurance, 926 F.2d 890, 897 (9th Cir.1991).

¶11VACATED AND REMANDED.
