Jenkins Law Library's Website Receives Recognition!

August 29, 2025
  •  

A recent article by EveryLibrary’s Action Platform recognized Jenkins Law Library’s website as one of the world’s best!

Jenkins received specific recognition for our research guides. Jenkins has 79 subject-specific research guides available on our website for 24/7 access. The article made a point to highlight our 13 “Self-Help” guides, which focus on common legal scenarios and topics. These self-help guides are available to anyone, but are designed specifically with self-represented litigants in mind.

Our research guides highlight legal research materials in various formats, including those that can be accessed for free online, in print, and on the library’s on-site legal databases such as Bloomberg Law, Lexis, VitalLaw, and Westlaw.

Receiving this recognition, we would like to publicly acknowledge and thank our staff members and librarians for the work that they continue to do to make our website so wonderful. We want to send a special shout-out to Dan Giancaterino, our library's IT Manager. From all of us at Jenkins Library, and the users of our website, thank you, Dan!
