We have various editions of UBSS Proceedings available, all in very good or near mint condition (if you require a specific description, please ask); many have a fold-out survey and all contain superb peer-reviewed papers. This is one of the highest quality journals published in the UK, with three issues making one volume. Some early copies are scarce and are priced accordingly (condition is also taken into account).
The following table indicates available issues, the year (copies are published for the preceding year, which is the one listed, not the date of publication), and the presence of any fold-out or loose surveys supplied with that issue. Other surveys (of which there are many) appear on normal printed pages. Finally, the price for that issue (including postage to the UK) is in the last column. Overall, this can be an excellent way to obtain an otherwise hard-to-locate survey and a realistic price.
If you require a different post destination than the UK please contact us for a specific quote covering the additional postage. It is only possible to order copies for UK delivery on this page.
To place an order, note the Volume and Issue number and price, eg. Vol 13 (1), and use the drop-down box to select the correct payment then place the order. During checkout (or in a separate e-mail) please state which issue(s) the payment is for.
In general, we have one only (sometimes two) copies of these issues available; if we have more than one, the best quality copy will be supplied to fill any order.

Data sheet
Orders outside the UK
Although Wild Places used to offer ordering options for worldwide destinations, changes to taxation in the EU and USA (and potentially elsewhere) have curtailed these.
We regret that increasing costs and difficulties with posting goods to destinations outside the UK mean that we have removed the option to order from other countries from the product pages, other than for our own books. However, if you wish to purchase any item and no option shows for your delivery destination, please ask and we will quote for the additional postage.
Further explanatory notes are given below.
Following Brexit, in 2021 new customs documentation came into force and the EU removed exemptions for tax and customs duty on low value items posted from the UK to the EU. VAT at your EU country’s current rate plus a post office handling charge is now applied on delivery.
In 2025 the required documentation added an Entry Summary Declaration / Safety and Security Declaration, requiring a risk analysis and contact details of an EU-based agent – while the former is easy (do not drop book on foot, beware of paper cuts) the latter is simply too expensive to comply with. In short, we are no longer able to post goods to the EU.
Nevertheless, and bearing in mind the additional VAT and handling charges (which, to be clear, Wild Places is unable to cover; you will have to pay these on delivery), if you still wish to make a purchase please contact us for the latest information and options in this area of constant change.
In May 2025 President Trump cancelled tariff exemptions for small parcels entering the USA, meaning that an additional tax became required. Wild Places has been left with no option other than ceasing to post goods to the USA. However, if you still wish to make a purchase and accept any charge upon delivery, please contact us.
The restrictions on posting to the EU and USA do not apply to other international destinations. However, if any customs or tax is applicable in your country, you are responsible for this on delivery (Wild Places cannot advise on local charges or laws).
International postage charges from the UK have increased enormously in recent years and this is a continuing trend. Please ask and we will quote on an individual basis for non-EU/US destinations and where possible combine books to obtain the best rate possible. To arrive at this price we take off the (otherwise included) UK postage charge then add the international postage charge at cost.
Definitions
The timing of placing goods on sale and their definition has a bearing on which of these we are permitted to post to some destinations. To satisfy any enquiry, please note that all new products on this website were placed on the market before 13 December 2024. Our second-hand books are considered to be collectable items and exempt from the latest EU legislation relating to documentation.
Please see our FAQs relating to deliveries, and the Delivery page linked from the bottom of each item’s page, before placing your order if time is important.
