This is also available to anybody at LSU. I thought some of you might be interested in the following databases with online full text of computing books. You even have access from off campus with your 11 digit LSU ID number, and PIN. Your PIN is "changeme" until you change it. You may change you PIN by going into the online catalog, under My Account, then Change My PIN. http://lsu.louislibraries.org/uhtbin/cgisirsi/QQbLb07O0d/257990272/29/40/X/2 http://www.lib.lsu.edu/databases/descriptions/safari.html This includes works from publishers such as O'Reilly, SAMS, Pearson, Cisco, Hewlett Packard, and Adobe. (This is the one for which we had a trial. We were able to purchase access to some books here.) Netlibrary also includes some computing books: http://www.lib.lsu.edu/databases/descriptions/netlibrary.html Netlibrary has a more advanced search screen, whereas Safari seems to have more titles each from O'Reilly and SAMS.
