To take this thread even farther off topic, there are plans for such
things online. You might also check if an area library has one you
could use.

I thought so enough to save mine, and started to scan
them. To that end I acquired a paper slicer that can
cut the binding off in a single stroke, but the project
stalled, as the paper used is very thin, and doesn't
auto feed well at all. It got too laborious to have
to go through the scanned books a page at a time to
correct all of the pages that got fed together by the
scanner's feed rollers.
I have been on the lookout for a book scanner that
would allow me to scan the books, manually but accurately,
in their bound state.
If I have to go through it page-by-page, I may as well
be hand flipping the pages.

Perhaps these hard copies of data books will be worth their weight in
gold when all the libraries are shut down. At least worth something
to engineers like us.

On March 26, 2023, a federal judge sided in favor of the four
leading publishers in the US, who sued the Internet Archive for
scanning and lending out numerous digital copies of their
published works.
In April, The internet Archive submitted a final appellate
reply brief fighting the judge's ruling...And the fight goes
on...
I can't help but note that Google does exactly the same thing,
but seems to be inured against legal harm...

I went to archive.org, selected "books" then entered "Motorola data
book" and get 16 responses. 13 are "not in library" and 3 are
available to "borrow" if I log in.
How specifically are you getting to where data books can be
downloaded?
I have shelves of data books. If I could get searchable pdfs of
them I would give away or recycle the books, which would give me
more space for actual test equipment.

Not sure how you are looking these up but I just go to
archive.org, enter something like "Motorola data book" and I get a
databook I can download in PDF or PDF with OCR. Searching for
"transistor cross reference" brought up four books that can be
downloaded. Perhaps it is the way you search for them. --
