IBM Information Retrieval. IBM, NYC, ca. 1959. (No date but the bibliography cites only 1957 and 1958 recent works, and the IBM machine quoted here for this particular use is the RAMAC which was sold beginning 1956. I guess it is possible that this was 1960-1962, though I'd also guess there would be more recent entries in the bibliog.) 8.5x 11, 16 pp, illustrated. FINE condition. This is summation of the current state of affairs in info storage and retrieval delivered in a how-to schematic step-by-step presentation, concentrating on library applications, and including a tail piece on the library of the future, with that schematic reproduced here.
