How much is already up on the likes of bitsavers / indexed through MANX
I don't know...

I'll have
a look... hard to tell what there is at the moment. Certainly
a lot of -11 stuff and peripherals, along with some -8 bits (which
implies that DEC made an effort to go back and transfer some of their -8
paper docs to fiche at some point). Supposedly we've got everything
that was ever released on fiche by DEC, but I doubt there's any record
of exactly what that is anywhere...
Well, the complete "VAX Maintenence Library" takes one blue fiche box. I
know you can find PDP-8, PDP10, PDP-11, VAX, and early Alpha hardware
documentation on Fiche, as well as XXDP, VMS Source listings, and who knows
what other software related fiche. I'm guessing there is a good chance that
some of the other HW families made it to fiche as well.
