I'm having trouble finding information about Slavic paganism. Anyone know of any books or articles?

Re: Rodnovery Resources?
Here's some raw, perhaps not-so-accurate, sources. Unfortunately there isn't a lot in English. There's a lot more info in the folklore than there are on most deity-specific blogs and websites, but I'll list a couple sites with lore too. I'll try to get the list up on my blog soonish too so there's a more stable location for information.
Remember, good starting point. But if you really want to understand it, you need to dig into the lore and do a lot of cross-referencing. A lot of what's floating around there isn't really region-specific, and a lot of it is blended. But it helps that you already know what you're looking for.

Whew... and now for the books:
I know, wall of text.
Be sure that if you look into the actual books, you keep lists of the books' sources and reference lists as well, those are the parts you want...
There are also some free kindle/cloudreader books on amazon regarding Russian/Slavic/Balkan folklore and faery tales, I'll try to dig those out another time. I hope you're ready for some reading.
