There's this on line form I could fill up to suggest books to our uni library. The books can be about anything or any implementation such as hacking as long as it's Free Software, I guess that's good?

If your library stores ebooks, then perhaps this list could be of help to you: http://resrc.io/tag/
Or check the project on GitHub: https://github.com/vhf/free-programming-books.

Hope that helps :)

My suggestion would be the books sold by FSF
Free as in Freedom;
Free Software, Free Society.

and the other one would be
Structure and Interpretations of Computer Programs

Well, if the books are for a university, then he should choose books about development.

I suggest the "Debian Administrator's Handbook" or the "Debian bible".

I've also suggested the social engineering book by Christopher Hadnagy to our library and it was just approved and ordered to our library yesterday! Must be sweet! :D
For those of you not familiar, I believe it's the top rated book in Amazon when you search for social engineering under books category. I also think it's one of the best books out there.
