In practice, very few print books are bought at WHSL. In 2014, the Library has been allocated no funds for print books. Most of WHSL's book acquisitions are therefore electronic and aimed at the undergraduate population. Some postgraduate clinical medicine textbooks are available full text via services such as Clinical Key.
