This seems to be an increasingly common occurrence. Green’s Operative Hand Surgery has been doing this since the last edition was published. Even worse, the 6-volume Plastic Surgery,
edited by Neligan, has the historical section for each chapter and some of the references available online only!
Having checked with the publisher, I have activated online access on behalf of the library. Only library staff have access to the user name and password. However, this means that
library staff can provide the full list of references to individuals who request them.

Dear All,
I was alerted by the MEDLIB-L list that the 10th edition of this book had put its full reference lists online only, and there seemed to be an issue with access to them if you were not an individual purchaser of the book.
I made a note to check this when our copy arrived. Indeed, the full reference lists are online only, with only “selected” references appearing in print. I am trying to find out from the publisher whether the full lists are going to be
freely available to everyone for ever.
I mention this because I would be interested to know if anyone else has spotted this or pursued it.
Best wishes,
Keith
