jQuery is very popular. The chance that you’ll get two or more jQuery files loaded on the same page is very high. As long as it doesn’t conflict, it is fine.

To do so, create a pointer to your jQuery:

var myJq = jQuery.noConfict();
```So if you can, avoid invoking $ or jQuery directly. Here is the original example from [jQuery forum](http://forum.jquery.com/topic/multiple-versions-of-jquery-on-the-same-page):
