Publications now out of print

SAVE has been producing reports since its foundation in 1975. It is therefore not surprising that many of these are now unavailable. Please see below the list of our earlier publications which are now out of print.

We hope one day to have pdfs of our out of print publications available to be downloaded from our website. We would welcome any donations aimed specifically at having our publications scanned. Alternatively if anyone would like to offer their time to scan documents on our behalf, please be in touch.
