-This first set is courtesy ​of Pearson Education'​s ​User Group program ​(they'd love if one writes a review of these, and especially on-line, and most especially ​on Amazon):+Want to increase your odds of getting one of these books? ​ :%%%%-)\\ 
 +I'll consider these factors: 
 +  * make it to the meeting (that'​s ​where I generally give the book(s) away for some person(s) in the user group) 
 +  * drop a note to the relevant [L]UG's (talk/​discussion) list regarding which title(s) you're interested in (in preference order if more than one)(and for what (noble) purpose(s)) (and preferably reasonably in advance of the meeting ​e.g. I may opt not to schlep book(s) with me if no one has expressed interest in them before I pack for my trek to the meeting - which may be rather early in the morning if I'm doing other stuff (e.g. work) before meeting ​and may head straight to meeting after that) 
 +  * make it to the meeting ​on time (or best approximations thereof) 
 +  * which such note(s) of interest are posted earliest/​earlier to list
