| Abstract / Summary: |
This two-part article considers how digital culture has influenced
ideas about permanence. It examines the change in collecting practices
in one legal deposit library. The author considers how the idea
of permanence, understood in cultural heritage terms, influences
digital culture, and, thus, digital technology. The first part of the
article addresses the concepts associated with permanence, digital
culture, digital technology, social change, and cultural institutions,
in relation to collecting digital cultural material. The second part
focuses on changing collecting practices of the Alexander Turnbull
Library at the National Library of New Zealand for electronically
published material with the benefit of legal deposit. |
