Q: Where can I find a BLS/ ACLS book?
As of June 2019, The Ascension Wisconsin
Libraries no longer circulate BLS / ACLS / or PALS books for the following
reasons:
- The new online program does not follow what's in the old (c2016) print books. Thus, they contain out-dated information and may lead people astray.
- The most up-to-date versions of the text are contained within the online program.
- The eBook version is available to associates before, during and after they complete the online course.
- Life Support / Librarians are not on site to keep track of these books. Many print books are never returned, or disappear without ever being checked out.
- The print books are no longer being purchased by Life Support.
- They are costly to replace.
- If you really want the print book, we recommend that you purchase your won copy through Amazon or other book supplier. You'll get a better price that Ascension did.
You can purchase your own print copies of the latest editions from The American Heart Association directly:
Buy the current BLS Student Manual (c2020) from The American Heart Association. ISBN 9781616697686
