Maggi Young:
These links to Dr Deno's "Seed Germination: Theory and Practice" and the two supplemental books are free downloads at the USDA National Agriculture Library online site. I know this book is out of print and nearly impossible to find. I hope this information is useful.
The books of Norman Deno are in the Public Domain so they are free for download.
National Agricultural Library Digital Collections

In another thread, Karaba added this :
other indications on germination of Artemisia Genepi :
* an other paper from Schwienbacher
* Tom Clothier's archive. This archieve propose also a taxonomic index for Deno's work (I didn't compare with Deno's book and I don't know if it's complete)
Jack Meatcher:
I have a copy of Deno second edition plus the first supplement to the second edition. Don't all rush but I can try to look up individual items if you email me via Messages. You do need to know the codes to work out what is being presented, however.
