This has been quite an active year for the Harris County Law Library. We're proud of our many accomplishments, and we're looking forward to a number of new and exciting projects in 2018.
As a reader of this blog, Ex Libris Juris, you're familiar with the kinds news and information we provide. We cover everything from new library resources and tips for more effective legal research, to trends in legal technology and, on occasion, legal history. This year, we were honored to be recognized dozens of times by Texas Bar Today, the State Bar of Texas daily roundup of the best blog posts published in the state. On eight occasions, Texas Bar Today selected our blog for its weekly compilation of the top ten blog posts. Subject matter for the selected blog posts has varied considerably, covering such diverse topics as digital currency, the right-to-repair movement, legal chatbots, access to justice, daylight savings time, and geography and the law. We have been proud to share the Texas Bar Today Top Ten Badge on social media and grateful for the attention -- and blog traffic -- it has brought us.
We have also been included several times on the American Association of Law Libraries KnowItAALL daily email newsletter. Being recognized by our professional peers is a true honor. We appreciate the attention from AALL and always feel proud to be included among our law librarian colleagues,
We're excited about the upcoming year and eager to begin contributing more news and ideas to the diverse array of content that those in the Texas law blog community create and share online. Happy New Year, everyone!
