We perform no-core full configuration calculations for the lithium isotopes ⁶Li, ⁷Li, and ⁸Li with the realistic nucleon-nucleon interaction JISP16. We obtain a set of observables, including spectra, radii, multipole moments, and transition probabilities, and compare with experiment where available. We also present one-body density distributions for selected states. Convergence properties of these density distributions shed light on the convergence properties of one-body observables. We obtain underbinding by 0.5, 0.7, and 1.0 MeV for ⁶Li, ⁷Li, and ⁸Li, respectively. Magnetic moments are well converged and agree with experiment to within 20$%$.
