Book Suggestions

Subject: [BLKBRD-L] Book and Material Suggestions - URGENT!!!

I just received word that a small sum of money has been allocated to purchase books, training materials, reference guides, etc. that are related to my job of providing support and training for faculty in the use of Blackboard. Oh, I forgot to mention that it has to be spent by Monday!

Does anyone have any great suggestions about books, materials, or guides that you use and would recommend to add to my arsenal? I'm open for any suggestions, but am specifically looking for a few web-based, instructional design guides and portal design guides. I'd also love to see some online teaching-related training guides especially those about current edtech topics instead of just technical how-to's for Blackboard.
