Sorry wasn't aware of the operational aspects of bitsavers or how stuff finds it's a way in there (although I just had a good read of it all).
But having said that, it looks like this collection perished without finding its way to bitsavers so it’s not so much where its stored - it’s the act of collecting the paper and scanning it in. If I scan stuff can I add it or get it added to BitSavers - I'm not sure because there's a notice on their web site (and I'm certainly not decrying their efforts - its highly valued resource intensive work): "Due to the current several year backlog of documents to process, we are not actively soliciting additional paper or scans to add to the collection" (Not sure if I can do anything but I might send them an offer of help.)

What a brilliant idea. We could call it "bitsavers"!
