Does the device show up in /proc/scsi/scsi?

My Dell PV 132T shows up as the following:

$ cat /proc/scsi/scsi

Assuming the it's the first library found by the system, what does
# mtx -f /dev/sg0 status
show?

# mtx -f /dev/sg0 status
Storage Changer /dev/sg0:1 Drives, 22 Slots ( 0 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Empty
Storage Element 1:Full :VolumeTag=000046
Storage Element 2:Full :VolumeTag=000047
