Almost all sources and even more important tons of documentation [VAXen, PDP's, OS] is provided by bitsavers.trailing-edge.com

Master instructions about TOPS-20 [and 10]:
bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/dec/spd/

Also there is vast amount of OpenVMS, RSX os'es; that You can still log in; through HECnet founded and maintained by: Johnny Billquist.

Salut!
