It depends on what the books are and what the reference material is. I’m an accountant, and anything like tax/compliance & standards related is usually digital because of how fast and often it changes. But I still have what you would call textbooks that I reference pretty often. Mostly my Treasury book, or when I’m trying to find a formula for a specific application. Hell I’ve even been guilty of digging back through my books from my articling period, to find something specific from time to time.
