For anyone who has not given O'Reilly's Safari service a try, you are missing out. They are offering a free 14 day trial for users group members. They have a very large selection of books that you can search through. If you are the kind of person who is always buying new books then this service is for you. Helps you stay on top of current publications without the need to build even more bookshelves in your office.
Personally I would like the ability to view the context of my search hits in books that are not on my bookshelf. Many times I have added a book to my bookshelf to see what the context was, only to discover it wasn't significant enough. Typically you only get access to the first part of the chapter that your search term appears. That is usually enough to determine if it is going to be useful for you, but not always.
They continue to add new titles and are up to 2019 at my last check. These are not limited to O'Reilly titles either, they have titles from a number of publishers. Visit the link to the right for more information and for your free 14 day trial.
