Subject: [Web4lib] Favorite open source books and/or online resources?

I'm a library student doing a reference assignment on building a part of
a collection. The subject I have chosen is open source software- in
specific, I'm looking for books and online resources that would be
useful for undergraduate computer science students. I'm looking at books
both on using open source as a business model and general books on how
open source projects work. I'm less interested in technical books
detailing "how to complete project x with open source tools y."

So, anyone have any recommendations?

I am collecting books I find in a worldcat list here:

         http://worldcat.org/profiles/karindalziel/lists/25571

And I'm collecting online resources bookmarks here:

I have to admit this was slightly selfish on my part, as I want to read
up on the topic too. :)

Thanks for your help,

Karin Dalziel
