A storage library system comprises a plurality of slots for storing items, a plurality of rails, and a robot for interacting with said items. The robot has at least two foot arrangements each having a respective gripping mechanism for releasably engaging that foot arrangement with the rails. The robot also has a transfer mechanism for moving the robot, while a first one or more of the foot arrangements remains engaged with a first of the rails, from a first position in which one or more of the foot arrangements is in abutment with a second of the rails to a second position in which one or more of the foot arrangements is in abutment with a third of the rails. The robot also has an end-effector for interacting with the items in the slots.

A conveying block 20 for conveying recording mediums between slots 15 and a drive block 16 is provided with a recording medium delivery block 50 for delivering the recording mediums to and from the slots 15 or the drive block 16, an extendable and retractable rail portion for moving the recording medium delivery block to a desired slot, and a control block 17 for controlling extension and retraction operation of the rail portion 31. The control block 17 determines whether the slots 15 are provided in an expansion area provided in an extending direction of the rail portion 31, and when the slots 15 are provided in the expansion area, the rail portion 31 is extended so that the recording medium delivery block 50 is moved to the desired slot in the expansion area. The recording mediums are efficiently stored for changer operation.

A cell (2) stores a plurality of magnetic tapes. A conveyance mechanism (4) manages movement of the magnetic tapes stored in the cell (2). An interlock switch cam (83) moves in a predetermined direction when a pressing force from an inner door claw (61) is removed. An interlock switch (200) shuts off power supply to the conveyance mechanism (4) when the interlock switch cam (83) moves in the predetermined direction. A disabling button (101) moves on a moving path of the interlock switch cam (83) by receiving an instruction from an operator and prevents the interlock switch cam (83) from moving in the predetermined direction.
