Greetings fellow geeks, techies, and other minded individuals!

Being the techie for the Offutt Library, I have been asked if there are any technical books that we should get. I have a couple of weeks to get a list together, and would like to put it out to you for some ideas. What would be the titles to get for an excellent IT & security collection? What is it that you went to get lately for work, home, or school; or just for curiosity? How about that title that you have been wanting, but just could not part with the cash to get it?

Well I know what I want to get for our collection, but am also gathering ideas from others out “in the trenches”. We need to know what is it that our community is working with now & planning to in the future. We have made some great strides with our collection in the last few years on our periodicals & magazines, as well as our digital imagery and sound topics. Now the focus is geared towards our core collection, and I need for you to take a moment of time & let me know your thoughts.  

This is what I need for you to do: email me back with the title, author, and ISBN number of a title you think we should have. I will add it to the list of considerations, and try to get it for our library. Please get back to us in the next few weeks – the sooner the better. We will always take ideas – but for us to get the items with this funding & Fiscal Year we need the information within the next three weeks. 

Thank you for your help  - I appreciate all your suggestions & ideas!
