Abstract
The introduction lays out the themes of the book, including the various approaches taken to the digital archive. The introduction also indicates the structure of the book, which is divided into two parts. Part I-Making a Digital Archive-investigates the properties of the digital archive through reference to the building of the Kaldor Public Art Projects digital archive. Essays in Part II-The Digital Archive and its Effects-explore the cultural impact of digital archives in general. Emphasis is placed on the cultural role played by the digital archive, both in the new accessibility to information made possible by online archives, and in the stimulus to creative re-use of information and archived material promoted by digital archives.
