Default Book with sailplane airfoils?

Anybody have a good title for a book showing good airfoils for
sailplanes (preferable ones good for ultralight sailplanes)? One with
coordinates for those airfoils would be great!

Consider "Profili" software. It is very useful. It comes with a great
list(100's) of airfoils. Xfoil is included for comparing polars as well as
changing camber, thickness etc.
