to data, IBM recommends locating the library and all shelf-resident cartridges in an area where access is controlled.
Onsite security measures
You are also responsible for evaluating, selecting, and implementing security features, administrative procedures, and appropriate controls in application systems
and communication facilities.

Criteria
Rack Standard EIA 19-inch rack
requirements
Power source AC Power Voltage: 100 - 240 VAC
Line Frequency: 50 - 60 Hz
Library is located near AC outlet.
The AC power cord must be always easily accessible.
Air quality Place the library in an area with minimal sources of particulate contamination.
Excessive dust and debris can damage tapes and tape drive.
Avoid areas near frequently used doorways, open windows, fans, air conditioners, copier rooms, stacks of supplies that collect dust, printers,
and smoke-filled rooms.
Do not store paper supplies next to the library.
Place the library away from high-traffic areas, especially if the floor is carpeted. Carpeting harbors dust and walking on the carpet can cause the
carpet fibers and the dust to become airborne.
Close the machine covers to minimize any contamination from airborne particles.
