Through Use and Emulation: Increasing Institutional Knowledge of Software Preservation with Computer Game Archiving
The goals of Through Use and Emulation: Increasing Institutional Knowledge of Software Preservation with Computer Game Archiving are two-fold: (1) to bring together relevant and interested stakeholders at the University of Arizona to illuminate challenges around software preservation activities related to the LGIRA, and (2) to foster discussion that results in translating the LGIRA’s approach of “preservation through use” into digital workflows involving emulation. These workflows, along with lessons learned, will then be shared with the FCoP cohort and the broader software preservation community in furtherance of the Software Preservation Network’s vision of “Preserving software through community engagement, infrastructure support, and knowledge generation.
