This paper addresses some practical aspects of cataloging and archiving Internet art. The discussion is divided into five sections: Definitions, Selection, Acquisition, Cataloging, and Preservation.
A list compiled in conjunction with the panel "Real or Not?: Virtual Artists Books" held at the Art Libraries Society of North America annual conference, March, 2000. Includes links to: born-digital artworks; works of history, theory, criticism; resources for best practices in acquisition, cataloging, and preservation of born-digital art objects.
