Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...:
man... was a really boringgggg read. It's useful if your professor tells you what to look at, but other than that... shoot me!
Educational Research:
This is a required textbook for class. It's good because it also gives online help.
Helpful, but expensive.:
This book is a pretty good introduction into research methods - I'd recommend it especially to Master's students in the areas of education, library and information science, and maybe public policy/administration.
