This demonstration by Dene Grigar and the six members of her team is part of #594 Making, Preserving, and Curating Born-Digital Literature, a Special Session organized by the Electronic Literature Organization at the Modern Language Association's 2020 conference. It features the work undertaken in Grigar's Electronic Literature Lab and includes interactive demonstrations about the creation, preservation, and curation of digital literary works that take advantage of the specific affordances of digital environments; participants discuss tools and strategies for making digital literature and integrating it into the literature or language classroom. We encourage you to visit the Projects page of this website to see the nine projects they will present at the event.
