The canonical reference is K&R:
C Programming Language (2nd Edition) by Brian W. Kernighan and Dennis M.
Ritchie
<http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Language-2nd-Brian-Kernighan/dp/0131103628/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1284512456&sr=8-1>
Maybe they have it at the library, but it's probably out most of the time.
It's very tempting to use this book simply as a reference to dip into, but
I thoroughly recommend you read it cover to cover and do the exercises one
by one. It *is* suitable for beginners, but you have to be committed to
learn because the material is presented in depth.
Every programmer should have a copy.
Best wishes,
Andrew
