? 3 decades more like. I'm pretty sure that the first computerisation of
lendings was brought into the library in my home town (Brighton in
England) about the time I stopped working there part time, when I was in
the 6th form (top 2 years of what Americans would call High School). I'd
have left in time to revise for exams before going to University. So it
would have been early 1975. The University library was all computerised
while I was there.
