I am not sure how your states Interlibrary loan programs works or what books the have for pool but check out my state's list. They had other books but thsese are ones I have not read and am going to request. It costs me a buck per book to get it mailed to my library and it takes a few weeks for each book to come in. What a deal!
Reviews of these books would be helpful since I can get the best ones first. Let me know if any stick out. The Willie Hoppe book sound pretty good.
