How do I access the White Book?

Please note the White Book is published annually with supplements throughout the year. BTC students are issued with a personal hard copy of this title and will normally work with the one they have been issued with at the start of their studies throughout that academic year.

The White Book is also available online via Westlaw Books. Note, the White Book goes to a new edition each year, so students working with the 2023 edition in hard copy will find that it is now 2024 online (as of end of March 24). However, the archive of previous editions can also be accessed - look for Archived Titles bottom left of the current White Book home page for 2023, 2022 and so on if needed.

Some of the libraries will additionally hold hard copies of the White Book, but normally the one in current use by BTC students for that academic year.

It is the responsibility of students sitting examinations to check with their programme about which edition/year they will be examined on (if they are sitting an exam after their expected sit, for whatever reason). They should check instructions carefully for any updating requirements. We cannot guarantee we will have copies of the White Book available to 'borrow' for exams.
