Hello Technology Librarians: There I was, sitting in my library, carefully
drafting a collection development strategy. Suddenly, my manager burst in,
dumped a bunch o' greenbacks on my desk and said--"Go out and buy some
books! But ya gotta buy 'em tomorrow, or the cash goes up in a puff of
smoke!"
O.K., not really. But I am new to collection development for information
technology, I am looking for recommended IT books, and I do have a time
constraint. So while I am consulting the standard review sources, I'm also
interested in your quick and dirty "top ten". Subjects of interest include
programming, programming languages, end-user applications, Internet, security,
networks, voice/telephony, hardware, distributed computing, operating
systems, software development, technical documentation, engineering...
I'd be most appreciative of any suggestions, including good IT book
review sources.
TIA,
Yael Schwartz
