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
