The problem that I have is not viewing the manuals myself, but rather providing links in Wikipedia articles that readers can clcik on to view the manuals without installing any additional software; I am assuming that they already have a PDF viewer, but not, e.g., BookManager READ.

I'm sure enough that no official PDFs of these manuals exist that I didn't see a need to pipe up earlier (others have provided what I believe are all the best references), but I can try digging further and report back if I find anything. Note that you can still consume BookManager ("Bookie") formatted content if that's all that's available - see https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/324693 and https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.bkm/bkm.htm .
