Note last December was the 50th Anniversary of the first Scheme paper.
Papers by Guy Steele and Gerald Sussman published as AI Memos by the MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory between December 1975 and March 1979.
As noted in Early standards, the tone of these papers is relatively informal and their typesetting targetted 1970s computer printing technology. Scans of original printed copies are available in the digital repository of MIT research and are listed in the Computer History Museum Software Preservation Group's Scheme Project
HTML transcriptions with internal navigation and bibliography links are available here. The formatting of these transcriptions aims to retain the character of the originals, with updated typography and navigation; the HTML versions are self-contained files which can be saved and viewed offline.
