"Acid-Free Bits: Recommendations for Long-Lasting Electronic Literature"

by Nick Montfort and Noah Wardrip-Fruin
v. 1.0 June 14, 2004

ELO's Preservation, Archiving and Dissemination Committee (PAD) has  
just published an important set of guidelines for creating enduring  
eliterature and digital media works.

"Acid-Free Bits" is now available at the ELO's website,
http://www.eliterature.org .

We hope that artists, writers, instructors, scholars, and librarians  
will find "Acid-Free Bits" both useful and provocative for writing,  
art-making, teaching, and debate about the nature and future of  
born-digital writing.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts about "Acid-Free Bits." Please  
feel free to contact the authors with your feedback:
 
Nick Montfort: nickm [at] nickm [dot] com ; web: http://nickm.com
Noah Wardrip-Fruin: nwf [at] brown [dot] edu
 
Please also feel free to post comments on the PAD discussion forum. You  
will find a link to this forum on the "Acid-Free Bits" web page.
 
Best regards,
