Molecular biology of the cell by Bruce Alberts et al. (1st-7th ed.)
ABSOLUTELY MOST WANTED OF ALL TIMES!
Most wanted from our print book collection in the last 25 years!
On the occasion of 50th EMBL and 45th Szilárd Library anniversary, we looked at the data available from our library systems from 1998 to 2023 about book loans and borrowers.
In the last 25 years and we proudly count 17980 book loans from 5637 borrowers. In addition to this number created by conscientious users, there are thousands of books borrowed in a hurry, and also those borrowed prior to the system automatization, of which we sadly have no loan record.
We present the most wanted print book in Szilárd Library and significant moments from our acquisition and circulation records!
