The Sibley Guide to Trees is an excellent guide to nearly all of the trees that occur in the Continental US and Canada (it leaves out the extreme South FL tree flora). It has good coverage of the oaks that are tree like. It mentions some of the "shrubby" oaks and leaves out or barely mentions some species, but for most of the oaks north of Mexico it is a wonderfully illustrated guide.

The Oak Compendium pulls various facts (morphology, ranges, habitats, etc.) about oaks from this guide and presents them in an organized and searchable way.
