Stanford shows only a 9171 and 1974

But they also show this title (with several variations):
ACM ... administrative directory of college and university computer
science/data processing programs and computer facilities 
 
Spine title:  ACM administrative directory  
Imprint:  New York, N.Y. : The Association, c1981-c1988.  
Physical Description:  v. ; 22 cm.   
Subject (LC):  Electronic data processing--Study and teaching
(Higher)--Directories.  
Subject (LC):  Computation laboratories--Directories.  
Organization:  Association for Computing Machinery.  
Organization:  Association for Computing Machinery. ACM administrative
directory.  
Continues:  Administrative directory of college and university computer
science/data processing programs and computer facilities  

Library has:  1975/76-88  


I can't tell from the cataloging record whether it actually has software
programs listed or not.

Jake stopped by this afternoon with something I hadn't seen before:

"Computer Programs Directory 1971" by the ACM "Joint Users Group"

This was the first edition of a collection of program abstracts from
most of the major manufacturers user's groups (decus, share, cosmic,
etc..)

I found a copy the '74 edition on bookfinder.com. Will need to dig
around CHM to see if we have any other editions.

Wonder how many editions there were, and if ACM tried to collect any of
the programs themselves.

I had known about the ACM "collected algorithms"..
