Hi Stephen
Our hospital library pays our Annals subscriptions for us. All members of
the department (even the hospital) have access, and no-one can nick
interesting editions from the library. Our shelves aren't cluttered up with
another pile of dusty paper journals, and searching them's a hell of a lot
quicker. The latest edition 'arrives' much quicker than anything sent by
snail mail from the States, and useful excerpts / abstracts can be cut and
pasted into other documents for teaching / presentations / references. Sad
people like me can even check it out from the comfort of their own homes.
Can't understand why anyone would still want to do it the 'old' way. I don't
think you've wasted your tickets.
((Are your trainers and postgraduate dean aware of your intellectually bland
existence?!))
