Books to prune

Murphy's suggestions

Murphy was in the office, came up with a suggested list of books we can get rid of. Below:

• powerpc programming/architecture, we don't do things on powerpc
• Practical UML statecharts in C/C++
• Animation: Master 2002
• We have at least 4 copies of "the C programming language", we can get rid of some
• Java 1.3 in a Nutshell, we don't need that
• VRML
• Frame Relays
• OS 2.1 programming book
• Books on Modula 2/3
• Numerical methods, Metafont book, Developing user Interfaces
• Calculus textbook on the right shelf, 5e is old
• any old coursenotes for courses that aren't being offered or are old
• we have two copies of principles of computer science
• two copies of elementary numerical analysis
• two copies of intro logic and sets for computer scientists
• numerical recipes in C should be replaced with 2e or not at all
