Today, the Video Game History Foundation launches early access to its digital archive of video game history research materials, available now at library.gamehistory.org.
Ever since we started in 2017, the Video Game History Foundation has been building a digital library to help the study of video game history. We’ve been collecting development documents, behind-the-scenes content, rare video game publications and catalogs, magazines, memorabilia, ephemera, and more.
After years of cataloging, processing, and digitizing our collections, we’re ready to open our (virtual) doors to the public for the first time.
I’m a little confused, how exactly does the site work? can you download anything from it?
https://library.gamehistory.org/repositories/2/archival_objects/13167
for example if I wanted to go here, there’s no link to download anything. so other than the page just existing, what exactly is the point?
I think their “library” link is just a list of the content, and you have to go to https://archive.gamehistory.org/ to actually access the content
I also think that their catalog is comprehensive, but not all materials have been digitized.
