The PDP-8 Automatic Magnetic Tape Control (Type 57A)

Library System is a series of bootstrap programs which load

library programs into memory from an IBM-compatible magnetic

tape read using a Type 57A Automatic Magnetic Tape

Control. A program is selected by entering the appropriate

code number into the switch register on the computer console.

A copy of the IBM-compatible library tape may be obtained

by sending a 1/2" magnetic tape to the author.
