I was able to access the database [LLMC Digital]! And holy cow,
it is exactly what I needed — I’ve been looking for some of this material for weeks and your site it’s taken me five minutes to find. I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to personally help me out here, I am beyond impressed with this service!

Jack Kieffaber

Harvard Law Student

*Thank you* to everyone at LLMC Digital responsible for adding material from South Asia (especially India). You have created the best collection of digitized law reports from colonial India that I know of–anywhere. These materials are hard to find even in India, and are in fragile condition here in the US (and in the UK), so this is a huge service you are doing for scholars worldwide. I am a huge fan of LLMC. In fact, I could not do my research without it, especially during the pandemic!

Dr. Mitra Sharafi

Professor, University of Wisconsin Law School

I want to congratulate LLMC for having a rare online publication we needed: La Graunde Abridgement, Anthony Fitzherbert, 1470-1538. It was a wonderful find for us to be able to pass along to our Legal History Professor. Much appreciated.

UC Davis School of Law

With access to LLMC Digital, Creighton University Law Library has been able to fill gaps in its historical materials that we would otherwise have to try and borrow from other libraries. By having the cataloging records in our ILS, we have given our patrons full access to a wealth of information that otherwise they would not discover.

Heather Buckwalter

Serials/Acquisitions Librarian,
Creighton University Law Library

LLMC-Digital provides an extremely valuable service by preserving legal titles in multiple formats for future generations. As a law librarian, I believe it is my responsibility to the public to support these efforts.
