At version 4.68, data from a recently
discovered Bell Laboratories document,
UNIX Bibliography [Scheiderman:1980:UB] have been
merged into this file.
=============
Massive effort, so impressive.
Plus the SQLite database. Nice touch.
Matt G’s constant flow of new docs is pushing the boundaries
of ‘known docs’ back.

Thanks to Unix document recovery work by some TUHS list members that
has been recently added to the archives at minnie.tuhs.org, a large
Bell Labs bibliography about Unix has been uncovered and is now
available online. I have spent time this week converting the 59-page
PDF file to a somewhat searchable OCR'ed PDF, and from a text
conversion of that file, to relatively clean BibTeX entries in
https://www.math.utah.edu/pub/tex/bib/unix.bib
[change .bib to .html for similar view with hypertext links].
The bibliography recorded in entry Scheiderman:1980:UB, with a long
remark field, has 457 entries, from the years 1972 to 1980, but due to
splitting into subject-specific sections, there are some duplications:
448 remain after data merger.
Much work remains to be done, including locating electronic copies of
those reports, correcting truncated data, and getting suitable URLs
retrofitted into their BibTeX entries.
