Booklist
Essential Textbooks:
For each module with an essential textbook, the Accredited Partner Centre must have a minimum
of 1 book per 4 students studying that module, with an absolute minimum of 2 copies of each
required textbook.

Further Reading Lists:


For modules with further reading lists, the Accredited Partner Centre must demonstrate that they
have a selection of suitable texts available in their library to support further reading. A list of

the area to be covered. These texts are expected to be in English. Where the number of different
texts available is small (4 or less), an absolute minimum of 2 copies of each textbook is required.
