Title: Preservation of computer games - cultural and technical issues

Having worked in Academic Libraries after completing my Masters in Information and Library Studies at the Unviersity of Brighton, I joined the Department of Information Science in July 2007. In my role as Institutional Repository Manager at the Pilkington Library, I developed an interest in digital preservation: this is reflected in my PhD research in which I am looking into the preservation of digital games in relation to their cultural significance.
