Andy,

If you want to do self teaching, on AMAZON the following books are ones I
used over 20 years ago.  For basic Assembler Instruction they are all
decent.  The one everyone drools over now is out of print and apparently
very pricey.

The following books appear to be available with a 1-2 day ship.  Not sure if
that is true or not.

        MVS Assembler Language (Paperback) by Kevin McQuillen, Anne Prince

        Assembler Language Programming: The IBM System/370 Family
(Hardcover) 
                by George Struble  (my fav)

        A Simplified Approach to S/370 Assembly Language Programming 
                by Barbara J. Burian 

I have not checked out this book but it is current on Amazon.
        Assembler Language Programming for IBMR and IBMR Compatible
Computers       [Formerly 370/360 Assembler Language Programming] (Formerly
370/360,        Assembler Language Programming) (Paperback)
                by Nancy Stern, Alden Sager, Robert A. Stern

The DROOL Book - Out of Print
        Advanced Assembler Language and MVS Interfaces for IBM Systems and
Application Programmers (Wiley professional computing) 
                by Carmine A. Cannatello  

Also, another good book for learning this is:
          Systems Programming (McGraw-Hill computer science series) 
                by John J. Donovan 

Another option would be to cruise past several universities and see if any
of them offer Mainframe Assembler Programming and check to see what books
they use.  Might be more accessible.

Hope this helps.
