SUFFOLK BIRDING with BINS

Supported by BINS and local birders

The Suffolk BINS Book Club

On this page you will see a tabulated list of books that have very kindly been made available to share and borrow for BINS members and known friends etc.  As you will appreciate, these are the property of fellow Suffolk birders own personal collections and should be treated as if they were your own or better !

It is hoped that when this page is fully populated, you will see a book that would assist you in either an organised trip or even when planning a family holiday destination, whether looking for birds, butterflies...........  To obtain these books, we are initially requesting that you text into the BINS central number directly, or if a non member, then get a BINS member to make contact on your behalf.  Hope you will find this service useful and a big thank you to all who are kindly allowing their books to be borrowed.  I also believe that the Suffolk Library Service are very good at getting in any books not listed for a very small fee of around two pounds.  Failing that, drop a request on the Guestbook and hopefully someone some where will know where to lay their hands on a copy for you to use/borrow.

**  Please note that the responsibility of any loaned books will lie with the recipient who may be asked to replace if lost or unacceptably damaged.
