Hey all,
We're scaling up Scrum at our office to either Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) or Scrum of Scrums. I have the training for SAFe (POPM) and would like to read some good material on scrum of scrums. Our teams still aren't cross functional, so we've also been looking at ScrumBan until they are. I haven't been able to find good books for either.
I typed in 'scrum of scrums' in Amazon, and it said, "Did you mean: scrub of scrubs."
Anyone recommend a good book for either? Saving Changes...

There is a book called Essential Scrum and has lots of good material by Kenneth S. Rubin. It should have some info on Scrum of Scrums.
As for SCRUMBAN, PMI agile guide has some info on SCRUMBAN in the appendix at the end and also scrum.org guide (Scrum with Kanban) has lots of details on this too
Good Luck ! Saving Changes...

The only book that matters is the scrum guide. You need to understand it and you will find that Scrum is a framework, it does mean you will not find "the how" inside it. Each organization that use Scrum must fill it up with the tools and techniques that best fit for its current situation. For example, there is no line into Scrum that stated that you have to use User Stories. To scale, if you apply Agile practices as defined, is nothing to scale. SAFe is a mess (take into account I am on charge to implement it in my current work place) and that is because is hardest to use. Scrum of Scrum was a fix and when you understand the concept you will find it has no use. Agile practices was born to be applied at enterprise level. They did not born for software or when the Manifesto was created. So, my recomendation is understanding your current situation and work on the variables that will help to use Scrum plus do not forget that based on your current situation you have to fill it up with tools and techniques.
