Please specify a maximum amount you would be willing to spend on your order and we will copy up to and including that amount. You will then be notified by e-mail of the additional charge and asked to pay the remainder. You will initially only be charged £2.50.

However, please note that if you are ordering copies in the searchroom we will not need to ask for the minimum charge of £2.50 as it will be possible to calculate the exact cost at the point of ordering.
