Librarians of a certain vintage, are any of you aware of a surviving copy of the BLCMP (Birmingham Libraries Co-operative Mechanisation Project) library automation software?
It existed in the 1980s and 1990s before being replaced with other systems like Talis or Dynix.
I'd love to see it running again!

  dear librarians of a certain vintage: one of the great missing treasures of today is a copy of Dynix ILS that dorks like me can toy around with at home on ancient servers and virtualized environments did anyone happen to back up a copy of their local system before they were replaced or decommissioned in the 2000s? #libraries
