One thing that might affect your decision is that ONC and TPC charts
have been removed from public sale as of May 1.  Several dealers,
including us, still have stock but once the stock is gone they're gone.

The ONC/TPC charts have always been a very popular series with our
customers and one of our best sellers.  Now that they are no longer
available from the publisher, I wonder if library usage will increase?

Digital versions will be available from some dealers such as
ourselves.  Plot on demand will be expensive due to the large size of
the charts - averaging 58 x 42 inches in size.

Cheers
Russell Guy
