Data storage library with media acclimation device and methods of acclimating data storage media

A computer program product for acclimating at least one electronic data storage library component for insertion or removal from an electronic data storage library, the computer program product comprising:

• one or more computer readable storage media, and program instructions collectively stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:
• program instructions to insert at least one data storage library component into an interior of at least one acclimation device;
• programming instructions to monitor at least one environmental condition within the interior of the at least one acclimation device;
• programming instructions to determine if the at least one environmental condition within the interior of the at least one acclimation device meets a predetermined threshold;
• programming instructions to adjust the at least one environmental condition within the interior of the at least one acclimation device in response to monitoring the at least one environmental condition within the interior of the at least one acclimation device;
• and
• programming instructions to remove the at least one electronic data storage library component from the interior of the at least one acclimation device in response to determining that the at least one environmental condition within the interior of the at least one acclimation device meets the predetermined threshold.

• programming instructions to monitor at least one environmental condition within the interior of the at least one acclimation device;
• program instructions to monitor at least one environmental condition outside of the at least one acclimation device;
• programming instructions to determine if the at least one environmental condition within the interior of the at least one acclimation device is within a predetermined threshold of the at least one environmental condition outside the at least one acclimation device;
• programming instructions to adjust, in response to the environmental condition within the interior of the acclimation device not being within the predetermined threshold of the at least one environmental condition outside the at least one acclimation device, the at least one environmental condition within at least one of the group consisting of:
• the interior of the at least one acclimation device, the interior of the electronic data storage library, and combinations thereof;
• and
• programming instructions to remove the at least one electronic data storage library component from the at least one acclimation device in response to determining that the at least one environmental condition within the interior of the at least one acclimation device is within the predetermined threshold of the at least one environmental condition outside the at least one acclimation device.
