<p>An automated library includes a magazine (40) comprising a cartridge engaging member (1428) which deflects to preclude insertion of the magazine into a magazine cavity when a cartridge (C) is improperly inserted. The magazine defines a cartridge cell (1400) and comprises a magazine wall (1420) from which cell partitions (1410) extend. The cartridge engaging member is a cantilevered arm having a distal end extending in a cartridge insertion direction. Only when a cartridge is properly inserted into the cell, will the cantilevered arm not extend beyond a reference plane. The magazine wall has an arcuate shape with plural cell mouths arranged angularly about an axis. The magazine wall has spaced apart ribs (1460) with a cartridge window (1664) formed therebetween. The magazine wall has at least one handle fin (1470) extending therefrom. A semi-cylindrical protrusion (1476) on the magazine is accommodated in a trough at a magazine-receiving aperture first edge.</p> |
