Worcestershire Biological Records Centre & Worcestershire Recorders
Worcestershire Record
Worcestershire Record is the newsletter and biological journal of the Worcestershire Biological Records Centre & Worcestershire Recorders. It is published (in paper) every 6 months; a one year subscription costs £15.00 (cheques payable to: Worcestershire Recorders). For details on how to receive Worcestershire Record, as soon as it is published, contact the editor Harry Green.
The journal articles on wildlife biology & recording are made available on this site (in previous years maybe slightly cut down), and appear several months after publication. Obviously, we would encourage anyone who is interested to subscribe. See the news pages for details of what is coming in the next issue.
Worcestershire Record as
web pages
The articles as web pages have a very different format compared to the paper edition articles, but contain the same text and pictures in larger size plus a text-listing of images.
Search Worcestershire Record
Google and Atomz are both now up-to-date in indexing all issues excepting some pictures in the Bugs article of Worcestershire Record 32.
Search methods: Prepending a key word(s) with a hyphon eliminates results for that key. Use quotes to define a word combination. May use OR or | to same effect. Example:
beetle|slug -"ground beetle" -kidderminster fungus
This searches for {beetle or slug} and {fungus}, eliminating results for both ground beetle and Kidderminster. If using a search engine directly "worcestershire record" and or wbrc may be usefully defined in addition. Capitalisation makes no difference.

Contributions to Worcestershire Record are encouraged. If you have any ideas for short notes, longer reports, anything of relevance to recording Worcestershire's wildlife will be considered. If you are going to embark on a long piece of work, please let the editor, Harry Green, know so he can reserve space.
