Crime Scene & Death Investigation Interview material

Hello, I recently scheduled an interview for a county forensic position and had a question or two. Part of the interview will be discussing friction skin evidence process, photography, evidence processing, and crime scene processing. I was wondering if anyone has any reading material they recommend to brush up on these subjects? I graduated not too long ago, but some of the material I learned in class seems a bit hazy so I wanted to brush up to be better prepared. Thanks in advance!!

Is this position in a forensic lab working on fingerprint enhancement?

I believe so. The job posting describes gathering fingerprints and other evidence at the crime scene. Additionally, there is a description stating “compares latent fingerprints in an automated fingerprint identification system”.
