Guidelines for XRF Analysis. Setting up programmes for WDXRF and EDXRF by James Willis, Clive Feather and Ken Turner, 2014.
XRF in the Workplace: A Guide to Practical XRF Spectrometry by James Willis, Ken Turner and Gary Pritchard, 2011.
Handbook of X-Ray Spectrometry: Methods and Techniques (Practical Spectroscopy, Vol 14)
If you want to really deep-dive into XRF spectromery in general, then my go-to book is the Bertin one:
Principles and Practice of X-Ray Spectrometric Analysis: https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9781461344186
The ones cited in the other posts are very good too.
If you can use an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, books are not needed for a while. The manual of the spectrometer is the best guide.
For a beginner I would recommend these 2 books:

We also have a small free course for sample preperation on www.fluxaminar.com. If you need more information don't hesitate to contact me.
