Does anybody has access to the Digital Library? It's important, because if I want to complete the articles about these man I'll need some information about publications that are digitalized in these library.--Petar Raitch (talk) 08:37, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Computer & Video Game Archives should be added[edit]

I saw that this library wasn’t added. There is significant interest in computer & video game archiving. The VIDEO GAME HISTORY FOUNDATION lists that they’re the first ever, which is a stretch by 7-8 years.

They’re mentioned prominently in a new New Yorker article (Nov 2022)

I wanted to link CVGA as a “see also” on the other wiki page, but it’s not mentioned at all. :( Kitty4777 (talk) 04:23, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
