There are tons of other Java libs around, per usual.
I know of a few Lisp and C/C++ libs, but I've never used Ruby or PHP, etc.
As far as reference books, I mainly just use online documentation and references (Google it.) I also like an older Lisp book by Mellish, but it doesn't use the latest techniques or anything.

Thanks for your response! I'm trying to:
(1) parse questions into the "opening" such as "What is the", and "subject" like "capital of Burkina Faso"?
(2) also looking for similarities between things like "going running" and "going for a jog"
I'm not sure if both of these fall under natural processing... mostly I use python so your first suggestion sounds like a good starting place.
For Python, I like NLTK at http://nltk.sourceforge.net
Java has something similar, though I've not used it, at http://opennlp.sourceforge.net/
