Subject:Needs resources for etymological research

I am extremely interested in the etymology of Arabic (both formal
Arabic and
the dialects) but I am finding it extemely difficult to get hold of
suitable
materials. I was wondering if you could suggest anything in any language
(ideally, bilingual etymological dictioinaries for the different
varieties
of Arabic).

I would be grateful for any guidance to further reading or other
sources of
information.
