A Manual for the Study of Insects By John Henry Comstock, Anna Botsford Comstock
Comstock Publishing Company, Inc., 1895
A classic entomology text with many illustrations. Other editions were published in 1930 and 1936. (Glenn W. Herrick was co-author on the third edition.) The first edition (1895) is in the public domain according to the law in the United States, and should be a good source of diagrams for the BugGuide glossary, for example.

Seashore Life of the Northern Pacific Coast By Eugene N. Kozloff
University of Washington Press, 2000
This book covers everything from plants to marine mammals along the coast of the Pacific, as well as Puget Sound, the Strait of Georgia, the San Juan Archipelago and San Francisco Bay.
I have found it extremely useful and it includes many of the mites, insects, isopods, etc. that may be found when visiting the beach.

Invasive Species in the Pacific Northwest By edited by P. D. Boersma, S. H. Reichard, & A. N. Van Buren.
University of Washington Press, 2006
It has a lot of history that is relevant to, in many cases North America in general. It tells when & where the first appearances or introductions of the different species occurred, etc.
It isn't only Arthropods, but it does cover a spider and some arthropods. Because there is so little "new" info available for the Pacific Northwest, I wanted to include this in the Book list.
