The Games Collection at the German Literature Archive (DLA)

Within its collecting mandate, the library of the German Literature Archive Marbach (Deutsches Literaturarchiv Marbach) also acquires, indexes, and archives computer games that contain traces of literary reception or whose narrative character could be of particular interest for literary research.

At the beginning of the conference "Games & Literature. On the literaricity, research, collection, and archiving of computer games", Andreas Kozlik gave a short introduction about the computer game collection that is being built up at the German Literature Archive Marbach (DLA) and its collection criteria.
