If you're serious about limit play, besides what has already been mentioned (which are great), give these two a read:

Small Stakes Hold 'em (partly authored by Sklansky) and

Texas Hold 'em for advanced players

Both awesome reads, and give you a lot of math and feel for the game. They are more geared towards limit, but the concepts you learn, like pot odds, etc., apply to other games as well. Good luck at the tables!

Read Small Stakes Hold Em by Sklansky/Malmuth/Miller, which was written specifically for these types of loose, station-heavy FLHE games. Generally the book is a bit outdated but, if your 4/8 game's seeing 5-6 players per flop with most seeing the river, then it still applies.

Starting hands should be similar.

Major difference between no limit and limit is you will get a lot more people in the pot in limit to the flop and beyond, thus your pre-flop strength has less value over all. You can also call a little bit looser in position with a wider range of hands if you have the right odds. If you are interested in grinding limit, this is pretty much the bible on low stakes limit poker: http://www.amazon.com/Small-Stakes-Hold-Winning-Expert/dp/1880685329/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1371530556&sr=8-2&keywords=low+limit+holdem

I followed that book concerning odds and such and have been playing for a living since.

There is also a difference in that you can push more people off drawing hands in no-limit by large bets, and you can't really do that in limit. I also find that in general, you can't bluff nearly as much either, because depending on the table, you almost always get called to the river by at least one person.

For tournament play:
Gus Hansen's Every Hand Revealed

I'm a tight-aggresive player who wanted to learn what goes on in the mind of a good maniac tournament player like Gus. I use to blind away to often and rarely built large stacks needed in tournament play. This book changed my perception of tournament play and opened me up to new ideas. The book covers every hand Gus played in an Aussie millions tournament that he won.

This book is all about low-limit live strategy. $2/$4 - $5/$10 limit specifically.

u/smirtch · 1 pointr/poker

Small Stakes Hold'em is the book you're looking for. I have won thousands in live play using these at small 2/4 to 6/12 tables... It's amazing how well their strategies work being that no-limit is illegal here in minnesota.

TAG I guess. Read small stakes holdem it'll pay for itself a hundred times over if you apply what you learn.

I would start with your HUD start to understand everything in there VPIP, CB, FCB stuff like this teaches you what to look for in a live game reading players, understanding what range and position is. There is no one class that will teach you all of this it has to be learned one piece at a time. Anything on YouTube is normally junk but look up pot equity vs hand equity vs fold equity. All this should give you the basics of poker to get your head above water at least. You can't play poker now a days without understanding this basic stuff or else you'll keep giving your money away or people will read you like a book! Let us know if there is anything specific you want to know. There are a lot of knowledgeable people on here. But read books and books and books. 2+2 has amazing low stakes poker book
