There are many diagrams available online. For example, you can search the origami database for web diagrams:
http://www.origamidatabase.com > Search in [Website] (rather than Full DB)
It seems there 2037 to pick from, so that should keep you busy for a while.
I usually also recommend origami.com ( http://dev.origami.com/diagram.cfm ), but it seems it's not reachable right now.
As to books, you should buy those - rather than ask for copies. If designers publish a book, I think it is not only illegal but also disrespectful to ask for scans of those books to avoid having to pay for it. One might argue differently if the books are out of print, but then again, there's so much incredible stuff out there that's free or still in print that those should keep you occupied.
Also, if you're still quite new to origami Satoshi Kamiya's work, and especially the Ancient Dragon, is probably not the best stuff to try. It needs high skills and the correct paper to work with. I'm just saying this to avoid frustration.
Best wishes and happy folding,

Here is a very simple, 3-step model you can fold.
Step 1: Crease
Step 2: Collapse along the creases
Step 3: Shape
If that is too easy for you, try Nicolas Terry's website: http://design.origami.free.fr/Diagrams/diagram.htm
Or pajarita.org: http://www.pajarita.org/modules.php?nam ... especiales
It's all in Spanish, but you don't have to be a genius to figure out what "diagramas" means.
