I feel you are not looking hard enough. I see a lot of material for the 103 & 104. Basically anything dated 2015 or newer will cover the current exam objectives. Also, look for LPIC-1 101/102 books dated 2015 or newer as well. Explanation as why below. While the older exam objectives will cover some of the same material, you will be missing out on a lot of the newer stuff.
In 2010, CompTIA partered with LPI to to redo the Linux+ exam. What they ended up doing is adopting the LPIC-1. Thus study materaisl for the LPIC-1 also work for the Linux+. However, in 2015 with the revamp to the LPIC-1, LPI kept the same testing number, 101/102 where as CompTIA make it the 103/104.
Here are just a few of the training that I see.

I actually took it to because I was switching roles within an organization - it wasn't required, but I wanted to be sure I was prepared. It is somethng employers look at, but that 3-for-1 package and the fact it doesn't expire make it worthwhile anyway.
The toughest thing wasn't the concepts, but the questions themselves. Linux administration is decidedly not multiple-choice, so I was often tripped up by the wording, or figuring out which of several close options they're looking for. I'd definitely recommend looking into a study guide or practice tests before you take it - your knowledge of the subject matter might be up to snuff, but the test can still be confusing. I also ended up using this book which contained study guides and flash cards in an (ironically Windows only) software package, and was organized more in terms of the test itself than the Sobell book.
Good luck!
