Getting Certified: Books

The books below are specifically aimed at Certification.
The TLS Study Group uses the Martinez text (aka orange-book) to structure its meetings, but your study should include additional texts. You should use both texts aimed at certification as well as more detailed texts on various Linux topics.

These are not recommendations. Use your own best judgement.
