Barnsley Bird Study Group has funded publication of the atlas through sponsorship and fundraising which
continued throughout the atlas project. Due to increases in the cost of publication over recent years, since
the original costs were given, costs which have been outside the control of the authors and the bird study
group, the cost per book has unfortunately had to increase accordingly.
Sponsors who originally paid £20.00 to sponsor a species and have their name in the book on their chosen
species page, will only be asked for an additional £15.00 per copy to help cover costs and will be offered
copies first. To anyone who has not sponsored a species in the book, the cost will be £35.00 per copy.
Postage & packing per book is £5.00.
Demand is expected to be high, therefore to reserve a copy please contact, David Pearce
(dmp.waxwings@btinternet.com), Peter Middleton (BBSG Secretary – pmiddleton630@btinternet.com) or
Graham Speight (BBSG Chairman – grahamspeight@uwclub.net). Please make cheques payable to
Barnsley Bird Study Group, cash payments will also be accepted. Thank you for supporting Barnsley Bird
Study Group.
