Having done this a couple of times, generally if you call the publisher and explain your organization you can get up wards of 40% off of list prices. Combined shipping is MUCH less per book, too.  Then they have to be shipped to members, but Media Mail is very cheap- $1-2 per book depending on weight aqnd distance.

If there are a lot of PBS members who want this book, perhaps the society can place a group order (maybe get it wholesale???)  I should think it would reduce shipping per copy and then when the box arrives, individual books could then be sent to US members at Media Mail rate.
This is just a thought; I can't judge the level of interest overall from the message board traffic alone.
