There are a few that I have that I haven't been able to find electronically
and still refer to.   For example, the MOSFET data book I could never find
anywhere, and I still occasionally will refer back to the wonderful
discussion of MOSFET operation when needed (although it's been a while
since I've needed to).   The archive I pointed toward has that one and I
think the majority of the books I have.

I also have a few old tab electronics books with cool old projects.
Haven't found those anywhere either.
