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.
