Thank You for Voting for Us in TLI's Best of 2017

The attorneys have once again voted for Jenkins as one of the best "Online Research Providers". This is our eighth year on the list and we have also made it into the Best of 2017 Hall of Fame having placed in the top three, three out of the last four years. We may never beat out LexisNexis and Westlaw, but our members know that as a "library cooperative", Jenkins is allowing them access to materials, both print and online, that they normally would not be able to afford. As our President Emeritus, Harold Cramer used to say, "Jenkins is the great equalizer."
