Barnes & Noble. They got what you need. What I did was go to the B&N looked at what titles they had to offer and on what subject. Then I got on Google and did a search on those titles to see what other people had to say. This process also lead to other resources on the net. If you look really hard, you can find alot of what you need on the net in PDF format. Unless you need a book on the go. As far as the best books , it all depends on you and your level of comprehension. Do you need diagrams, plain text, a book with a companion CD with help files on it. I really suggest you stick to the net first. You can find all the help you need for free.

Yeah, it does seem that way, and with the largest tape manufacturer in america shutting down it doesn't look good. I suggest you buy some tape or purchase it in bulk while you still may have the chance. What I often suggest people do (if they have the cash) is to mix in whatever daw you have access to (along with whatever console you have access to) and after that dump the tracks to 2 track tape (one with buss compression, one without.) After that fly both takes back in the daw and master from that instead of mastering from the tape. Yes, it is going to double your costs for tape, but you have two versions. One without the boards buss compression (a good board will have this) and with the buss compression. This will make it easier for mastering/editing, you won't degrade your tapes quality and you won't have to pay for additional head rental fees because you aren't mastering for tape.
An alternative? Find GOOD tape plugins, use a low jitter clock and make sure the converters are on point.
EDIT: and these are good also.

It's always good to dump to these at the same time you are dumping to tape. You can dump to these uncompressed and uncompressed. That way when its all finished you have multiple versions you have to choose from, but each is going to sound different. This is easy to dump to because all you have to do is use the other outputs on the board you are using.
