Since the information you are seeking is more general in nature, might I
suggest a visit to your local library just to peruse what's available
without any monetary expenditure. I've got a couple of good resources at
home, but since I'm at work (?) right now that doesn't do me a lot of good.
I'll try to remember to at least get the names and authors of the two that I
have and send it along tomorrow.

William,
I'm no expert, on anything, including books, but I would encourage you to go
ahead and ask questions. This is the friendliest list I've ever found and
there is a lot of expertise here.
You have an excellent camera, the PC is a nice choice. It's somewhat similar
to the OM-2S/OM-2SP (without the ability to spotmeter), so much of what you
read about the 2S probably applies to you as well.
Enjoy!
Tom
