material
Importance: Low

Hello,
I know that questions like this can come up quite a bit, so if answers
are in the list archive I am sorry about that, and could you point me
towards the sort of dates these answers were given (to save me searching
the entire archive).

Basically I am going to need some books (or other suitable learning
material) for learning java (with the intent that at the end I will be
taking the SCJP test). I believe that the books that normally suggested
by those providing me with the training is the "head first" books. There
will also be the books for preparation for the SCJP exam itself as well.
I would like to know if people know where an accessible version can be
got? What I mean by accessible is that I can read it in some form
(including using a screen reader). I ask this as for the oracle part of
the training the book that I was given in PDF was not accessible due to
its security options.

Also if anyone has any tips that might be useful before I start to learn
java, please let me know. I will be mainly using Linux but could (if
necessary) use a windows machine.

Thanks for your time.

Michael Whapples
