Please note that to receive volumes free of charge, members must be subscribed for the particular year for which the volume was issued. For example, subscribers for the year 2008 will not be entitled to receive Third Series numbers 19 and 20 which, although published in 2008-09, were actually issued for 2007. They will, however, be eligible to receive Third Series numbers 21 and 22, which are issued for 2008.
Prospective members who missed out on certain volumes may, however, backdate their subscriptions to previous years. For details please see the 'How to Join' page. Issue dates of recent publications are shown below, while those for some of our earlier volumes are given on the 'Publications in Print' page.
The Society apologises for the ongoing discrepancy between issue dates and publication dates, which is an inevitable consequence of not only the time taken by its small volunteer staff to edit these volumes, but also the costs involved in their production. It is hoped that our members, most of whom stay with us for many years, will see this matter in the long term and will sympathise with the Society's position in this respect.
