Odd... I try to download, but all I get is a 'loading' message and a spinny wheel icon. Is anybody else having trouble?

I only looked at them online, sorry. Maybe try a different browser?

So, so many wonderful books and catalogues there, it's hard to decide what to look at!

You are not wrong. I've bookmarked it for later.
