I have, today, sent an email to Graeme Dunbar who was, according to the web-
site, the Fig-UK librarian. The book is in the list there but as the group 
as an entity has been a bit defunct for a number of years I am unsure of the 
state-of play with the collection.

There are probably other books in the list that should be receiving the same 
treatment.
