Sneak Preview:

This is a new "library" feature I'm adding to the VCF website.  It
includes books, videos, and books on cassette, all on computer history
subjects.  99.9% link to the Amazon page where you can place an order for
convenience.

It still needs some better organization, and perhaps a search function
will come later.  In the meantime, it's a great resource for finding a
huge selection of books on all manner of computer history.  I think
interested parties will find it very extensive.

Suggestions always welcome.
