[1] For full details of each of the available books, please click on the individual titles spread across five pages in the store catalogue linked above. We shall be working on adding more provided that there is sufficient demand.

The previously operational DVD store is provisionally closed owing to the supplies and equipment needed to fulfil orders being out of service following international relocation. We have been advised that many new computers no longer contain DVD drives and compatibility issues have therefore precluded some customers from purchasing the DVDs. The individual files on the DVDs have therefore all now been made available as paid downloads without the need for postage instead.

[2] Owing to an exceptionally high backlog of work during early-to-mid 2026, the library is closed to visitors until September 2026. Visits may thereafter be requested by serious researchers only – this is not a library for casual browsers or tourists. Supervised library visits take significant advance preparation and are a discretionary service on application. Donations to cover the time cost of downtime from paid work can make it easier.
