I encourage the sharing of information but am not too keen on duplicating it if it’s not necessary. Many resources have been used to compile the information on this site, meaning that keeping it all up to date and accurate is not a straightforward task.

That said, I’d like to hear from you if you have a genuine need to use any of the copyrighted material on this site.

In addition, if you’d like to suggest any changes to anything on this site, or even suggest that we work together on the resource(s) you’re looking to create, then I welcome you to contact me.
