I wonder if someone associated with the Museum might potentially have access to some CP-V tapes or images, even if the museum is closed.

My university ran a Sigma 9 with UTS then CPV
A research facility (http://www.friendsofcrc.ca/Nelms-BriefHistoryOfCRC/ShirleysBaySiteName.html)
Shirleys bay near Ottawa ran a Sigma 7 years ago.
