This booklet is based the first of three booklets that the Society has produced and was sent out to members with Journal 94, Summer 2012, called "Ensuring Your Collection is Safe". This has been updated and enhanced to include additional caring information, and is available now as a downloadable PDF file.
In 30 pages it covers Theft, Fire and Household Insurance together with further information on caring for the pens in your collection, Simple Precautions for Your Home, Forensic Marking Fluid and an explanation of house alarm systems. Under insurance, advice is given on how to list your collection. Since the booklet was published in 2012, two aspects have moved on significantly. The first is that thieves have learnt to defeat the simple Euro lock fitted to most houses with UPVC or composition doors and the second is that the technology around domestic CCTV has advanced using wifi connection to household router and domestic phones.
2nd Edition was revised and produced in December 2025, and is available in digital form only, as a PDF download file.
