Lab Literature

I would like to build a small library for my drug discovery chemists. Which texts would you recommend?

Are you looking for research/review articles or textbooks (or both)?

Textbooks for easy reference. We have access to periodicals through SciFinder and institutional rights

Okay. Two books that come to mind are An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry by Patrick and The Handbook of Medicinal Chemistry by Davis & Ward. Both are medicinal chemistry-focused, but also contain a lot of information from the other disciplines in drug discovery.
