There was a scheme where ACM put up digital copies of important “out of print” books (I know this because the 1989 “Essays in Computing Science” (Hoare & Jones) is available this way)

I only ever came across a hard copy in our Tech Library. I agree - a readily available digital edition should be out there for all (curse you, Hathi Trust<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><span id="🙂" class="">🙂</span>) - it's a foundational document.<br class="">

<div class="" style="word-wrap: break-word; line-break: after-white-space;">Dear All,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Could anyone share with me an electronic copy of Jean Sammet’s book ‘Programming Languages: History and Fundamentals’ from 1969, or could point me to where I could get/access a copy?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I’ve looked in all my usual spots to no avail. Apologies if I missed something obvious. There is a copy temporarily readable on HathiTrust, but not downloadable. I’m surprised this isn’t more accessible.</div>
