Hello, I'm new to CENTOS and I'd like to learn how to use it from ground up.
Can anyone recommend me books on it?
I already have the documentation from the web site, can I start with it?
I've already done very basic stuff on archlinux and slackware.

Take a look at #4 of http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=14273&forum=4... (for example)

And do recall that CentOS draws from Redhat. There are many 'books' about RedHat -- from the ground up.

Welcome. Dive in. The only way to learn is to sink AND swim! Preferably, you'll be treading water for a while.
Read the posts here! Very good!
Also, subscribe to http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-announce for OS update announcements!
Cheers, Glenn
Well thanks you all guys

One book you might consider purchasing is "Fedora 9 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux Bible" (Wiley)) (Paperback). I do not have that edition, which just came out, but I have several previous editions. I am certain there are many other great books about RHEL. CentOS is a binary clone (with few exceptions) of RHEL. In addition to the great data on the CentOS WIki, you can download some of the manuals from our upstream (RH) on the CentOS web site. Possibly more manuals are available on the RH web site that you can download. As another poster pointed out, if you subscribe to and read this mailing list, you WILL learn. Another good method is "learn by destroying".
IMHO the best way to learn is to read the official documentation, and get some hands on practice.
I have purchased both Michael Jang's RHCE book and Tammy Fox's RHEL5 book (I'm preparing for RHCE), and while they are both very useful, the official documentation seems the best for really spelling things out.

IMHO, in this case, the official documentation is very good. Also, it can be downloaded, free.
