I was wondering if there are any books on plan 9. I mean that I can buy at a
book store, not just a .pdf.  I have already read nemo's textbook.

Some might find it an investment to create proper indexes, etc., and
bind some of the papers, as well as texts, on Plan 9, into a hard copy
and send it to you, for some profitable fee.


Hey, it's a more reputable way of making money than donations!

PDF files are books as much as printed bound stacks of paper are. Nemo's
book should suffice--the rest is exploration. Plan 9 is lean and nimble,
these 9fans say. You could be their proof of concept. Let's see what
becomes of you.

What I did was have Nemo's book and a number of the papers printed and bound
for $40 US.
Swing by your local Popcopy and have one of the apathetic and condescending
staff do the same.
