I love vintage programming books. Interlibrary loan has been my best friend in getting books you can’t find easily, or if you do they might be over $100 to buy.

- dhosek 5y agoI remember being in high school in the 80s and discovering that there was source code for a C compiler on the IBM mainframe at UIC. Then when I started digging into it, I found that parts of it were written in SNOBOL. Fortunately, the local public library's collection of computer books was hopelessly outdated and they had a book that covered SNOBOL on their shelves.
