there are not so many books about SOA (see amazon.com).
U should understand, that SOA it's only principles, policy and conceptions to build your apps, but not the detailed guide.


What's the problem with you task? The variety of sources heads for the central canonical model of keeping data.
You can use XML for this and iterating with sources based on XML and using XSLT to convert to the canonical form
