Baseball Prospectus and Baseball Reference are great sources, but my favorite source for sabermetric stats is www.fangraphs.com... lots of good material there, along with player predictions.
Baseball Between The Numbers is maybe the best sports book I've ever read, and you'll learn a huge amount about sabermetrics just from that... not to mention get a fresh perspective on conventional baseball wisdom.
A good primer on sabermetric stats and what they mean can be found on the hilarious Fire Joe Morgan website:
http://www.firejoemorgan.com/2005/04/glossary-of-terms.html
It's complete, and written in a way that a casual baseball fan can understand. This is the glossary I used when I first learned about sabermetrics and needed to look up stats I hadn't heard of.
Good luck!

The Bill James Historical Baseball Abstract probably is at the library. If not, it at least can be found on eBay every so often at a reasonable price. It will have some explanations on some of the concepts involved.
I'd loan you Bill's original abstracts -- I have all but one -- but they aren't leaving the house. Brilliant, original thinking about the game abounds in those books, and the Historical Abstract has several good theories. It why I think Bill James will be in the Hall of Fame someday soon.
