For a good number of years, I’ve been one of a number of community folks bemoaning the lack of Lotus-focused publications on the shelves of our local Barnes & Noble, Waterstones or Borders bookshops.
Thankfully, Packt Publishing have stepped into the breach this year, and are in the process of writing and publishing books on Sametime and Quickr amongst others.
A Google alert this weekend make me aware of a User Guide for Lotus Notes 8.5 that is about to be published, also by Packt Publishing:
