Yes, and for the Hymenoptera books like Perkins' Ichneumonidae and Benson's sawflies are going to be really useful. I already have them but it should help novices get into these groups :)

Just to remind you all that is there and worthwhile check it occasionally to see which titles have been added: http://www.royensoc.co.uk/content/out-print-handbooks. These are, for example, worthwhile to have:
• Vol 10 Part 14. An introduction to the immature stages of British Flies. Diptera Larvae, with notes on eggs, puparia and pupae. Main text. K. G. V. Smith
• Vol 10 Part 14. An introduction to the immature stages of British Flies. Diptera Larvae, with notes on eggs, puparia and pupae. Figures index. K. G. V. Smith
