Every month, UK Libraries adds new electronic resources to its collection of over 700 databases. One new addition, the LWW Health Library: Premium Basic Sciences, is making an outsized impact by helping reduce costs for students across the health sciences.

“We are thrilled that we can directly support our users by offering these resources at no cost,” said Medicine Liaison Lauren Robinson. “Increasing affordability was one of the primary motivations for acquiring this resource. When students no longer have to purchase these books, we can help lower their financial burden and chip away at economic barriers to higher education.”

LWW Health Library contains 54 core health sciences textbooks that are used widely by students and faculty in the Colleges of Medicine, Health Sciences, and Nursing, with applicability to courses in the Colleges of Public Health, Dentistry, Pharmacy, and Agriculture, Food, & Environment.

Included in the collection are eight books which are used by every student in both the College of Medicine and the Physician Assistant Studies Program, along with many others that are required for a variety of programs and courses.
