Hi Fergus and all,
 
I think the main part of the answer is that COG did have an office / shopfront / library in the city and found the cost thereof prohibitive and so this was changed. Hence COG's assets are stored wherever.
 
I have all the books you mention and would be content (within reason) for anyone to come and look at them (borrowing is a bigger ask). As well known I am in Kambah but surely there are others around. My GBS Report (2003) edition is in some of the ACT libraries, I don't know about the others. Also I would point out that whilst HANZAB is a big financial investment (between $2000 to $3000) and too much to buy unless you are really interested or have a lot of money, the other books are individually incredibly cheap for what they contain and I suggest every person in Canberra with more than a passing interest in birds SHOULD have all of them. For their own use and to support COG and local authors.
 
(p.s. I'm sure it is just a typo but my name is not quite how you did it.)
