I have an even dozen, roughly sorted in order of usefulness. Note that the books at the bottom of the list are still useful, they just have a smaller domain. A lot of people rave about Effective Perl Programming, but I think it loses a few points on its index -- it's not very good. A number of times I wanted to re-read a particular passage, and I kept drawing a blank, so now it's been swapped out, until I have time to read it from cover to cover, this time annotating it in the margin.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
