Hi all
 
This from Nobby Cordeiro on the latest (last years !!) issue of Scopus.
 
Nobby, would be good to know.
 
A. How folk can subscribe to Scopus ? it's sad there are so few (is it really less than 50) subscribers.
 
B. Where to find pdfs of these papers ? essential thesedays.
 
C. Where's my copy !!!  I know I've not subscribed and they are only short notes but !!!
 
D. Deadline for the next issue and when is it due out ?
 
Good to see this still up and walking, would be good to have it running !!!
 
So ......... I'm pretty sure that nearly everyone out there has at least a short note or two for the next issue, it's just a matter of checking on that unusual sighting, feeding, display, interaction or breeding record. BoA is the best place for this but I'm sure google would be worth trying. Needless to say we are chuffed to at long last see some Tz mapping out there in print.
