Its stated mission is care for human expression: born-digital works are fragile, and over fifteen years the lab has archived, curated, documented, restored, reconstructed and produced them. Its history starts with an exhibition Grigar curated for the Electronic Literature Organization's 2008 conference; she moved into the lab on January 10, 2011, and Wikipedia gives 2011 as the founding while filing it among 2008 establishments. From 2013 the lab documented works through Traversals, recordings on historically appropriate platforms, published in Pathfinders, Traversals and Rebooting Electronic Literature. It received the archives of trAce and Turbulence.org in 2016, built the Electronic Literature Repository with seven collections, and re-envisioned it as The NEXT, launched in 2020, which it manages, rebuilt for machine readers in 2021 and holds the physical artifacts of. Since 2019 it has restored and reconstructed works including Larsen's Kanji-Kus, Disch's Amnesia, Holeton's Figurski at Findhorn on Acid, Moulthrop's Victory Garden, Bly's We Descend, McDaid's Uncle Buddy's Phantom Funhouse and Kolb's Caged Text, by migration and emulation.

It hosts video games such as Amnesia (1986), radio art and game R&D, and online events such as the List of 280 Women E-Lit Pioneers & Visionaries. It has been called unique and possibly the greatest collection of first-generation e-lit in the Western world; its works were exhibited at the Library of Congress in 2013, and it won the 2022 Open Scholarship Award.

Its founder and director is Dene Grigar; its university page names beside her an associate director, a project manager and a technical specialist, and its own history names Richard Snyder as associate director in 2022. Its university page calls it a lab \"For Advanced Inquiry into Born Digital Literature\" and one of four media archaeology labs in the United States that allow scholars access to obsolete digital works on appropriate computer equipment, the only one experimenting with the preservation of literary apps. Over fifteen years it has archived, curated, documented, restored, reconstructed and produced born-digital art, literature and video games, and its collection serves advanced inquiry into curating, preserving and producing born-digital literary works. Its mission, in its own words, is \"care for human expression and the human experience\": such works are fragile and need special attention to endure as a historical record, and the lab's stated principles govern its relations with creators, collaborators and the public. Its university page is at labs.wsu.edu/grigar-ell, its own site at electronicliteraturelab.org, and its postal address is Washington State University Vancouver, 14204 NE Salmon Creek Avenue, Vancouver, WA 98686. The leesharks.com authorship census enters the lab as an institution standing to the census as infrastructure, places it among the avant-garde and experimental archives, and gives the question it answers as where born-digital literary works can be read on the hardware they were made for, with authorship not recorded on the saved page. The census asks of each resource it admits how authorship is made, named, distributed, attributed and sustained across persons, personas, collectives and machine participation, and what is lost when those relations are collapsed, and it admits a resource that gathers and holds many other works or records and says what it holds. Its unit is a work in the lab's library or a computer in its collection as the lab's database of computers and library lists them; the database is linked from the university page, and the census records it as unsaved and the lab as active, with no date on its page beyond the 2021 staff list. The lab's history begins with the exhibition Grigar curated for the Electronic Literature Organization's 2008 conference, where visitors could read floppy disks and CD-ROMs from her personal library on legacy computers she owned. On January 10, 2011 she moved into the lab and set up her sixteen legacy computers and her personal library of born-digital media. The lab's Wikipedia article gives 2011 as its founding year and also files it among 2008 establishments in Washington State; the Wikipedia article on The NEXT says that the lab opened officially in 2011. In 2013 the lab took up the documentation of born-digital literature: with an NEH grant for Pathfinders, Grigar and Stuart Moulthrop began the Traversals, video and audio recordings of works otherwise inaccessible, made on historically appropriate platforms, the first of Moulthrop's Victory Garden, followed by John McDaid's of Uncle Buddy's Phantom Funhouse and Shelley Jackson's of Patchwork Girl. The results were published as the Pathfinders book in 2015, in Traversals: The Use of Preservation for Early Electronic Writing in 2017 and in Rebooting Electronic Literature, volumes 1–5, from 2018 to 2021, and the lab's Studio still hosts live Traversals, artists' talks and interviews. From December 2016 the lab was given the archives of the trAce Online Writing Centre and of Turbulence.org; Grigar proposed a repository to the Mellon Foundation, and the Electronic Literature Repository went live with seven collections, trAce, Turbulence, and those of Alan Bigelow, Stephanie Strickland, Marjorie C. Luesebrink, N. Katherine Hayles and David Kolb. The repository was re-envisioned as a museum and library, The NEXT, built with open Web languages and launched on May 6, 2020; the lab built it and manages it, holds its physical artifacts and the hardware and software it depends on to show works in their original environment, and Grigar is its managing director and curator. In 2021 two members of the lab's team rebuilt The NEXT with semantic markup and ARIA so that it was accessible via machine readers, and in 2022 the lab received the Canadian Social Knowledge Institute's Open Scholarship Award for it. The NEXT holds the work of individual artists and scholars donated to it in 48 collections, among whose qualities it lists the algorithmic, the generative and artificial intelligence, and the census keeps it as an entity of its own. From 2019 the lab has conserved works held in its archives by restoring and reconstructing them so that outmoded works stay accessible to the public: it restored Deena Larsen's seventeen \"Kanji-Kus\" poems by moving them out of iFrames and reprogramming their Java applets in JavaScript, and with students translated Thomas Disch's Amnesia for the Web as Amnesia Restored in 2021. It reconstructed Richard Holeton's hypertext novel Figurski at Findhorn on Acid, Stuart Moulthrop's Victory Garden, Bill Bly's We Descend and John McDaid's Uncle Buddy's Phantom Funhouse, and in 2022 built David Kolb's \"Caged Text\", a work planned for his essay Socrates in the Labyrinth and unfinished since 1997. As Kristin Lillvis and Melinda White note, its restorations by migration and emulation have made many works in the collection accessible once again, and the lab documents these processes in scholarly publications such as The Challenges of Born-Digital Fiction. In 2020 it made its own metadata schema, ELMS 1.0, by modifying the CELL Project's, which had extended the controlled vocabularies of MODS; ELMS 3.0 added vocabularies attending to the needs of people with disabilities and sensory sensibilities, and a 2024 proposal to the National Endowment for the Humanities to apply ELMS 3.0 to every work in The NEXT was not funded. With Frode Hegland, Grigar was awarded a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to experiment with academic reading and writing in XR environments. Its holdings are counted differently by source and date: the university page, whose latest date is its list of 2021 undergraduate researchers, gives 61 vintage Macintosh computers and PCs dating back from 1977 and a library of 200 electronic literary works; the lab's Wikipedia article gives over 80 vintage computers from 1977 onwards serving over 3,000 works of electronic literature; the lab's own site gives over 100 Macintosh and Windows computers dating back to 1977 and a library of software, manuals and born-digital works. The census record keeps the university page's counts, undated on that page. The lab works in four spaces: the Reading Room, in its own words one of the only spaces of its type in the world, where visitors use historical media on the lab's computers; the Archives Room, given to the lab in April 2024, which holds the physical archives of The NEXT and of the Electronic Literature Organization, from artists' notebooks and personal papers to performance props and ephemera; the Restoration Room, opened in January 2026, with its backstock of hardware, software, manuals and peripherals; and the Studio. The lab is the center of archiving electronic literature for the Electronic Literature Organization. It also hosts video games, among them Amnesia (1986), supports radio art through Re-imagined Radio and video-game research and development through CMDC Studios, and hosts online events such as the List of 280 Women E-Lit Pioneers & Visionaries (1985–2020). Electronic literature was built on specific hardware, software and platforms, and as these become obsolete the works become largely inaccessible; the lab keeps its vintage computers for that reason. Media archaeology, the lab's method in the census's account, keeps obsolete computers working so that born-digital works can be read on their platforms; in the archive's compression studies, media archaeology is the study of the material history of media technologies and of historical media artifacts, and compression studies is set apart from it by also studying live platform and model compressions in real time. In the archive's account of how a source is represented, a born-digital document comes with no digitization step, and a born-digital essay whose argument does not depend on spatial-typographic features may be compositionally faithful \"simply by virtue of not having relevant features to lose\". James O'Sullivan called the lab \"what is possibly the greatest collection of first-generation e-lit in the Western world\", it has been called unique as a reading room that preserves \"literature, art and games created on computers that cannot be printed\", and works from the lab were exhibited at the Library of Congress in 2013. Electronic literature critics such as Astrid Ensslin and Mariusz Pisarski have worked with the university's students and professors to analyze and archive works. The archive's field survey places electronic literature in the procedural lineage, \"from the Oulipo through electronic literature to contemporary computational poetics\", that \"established that composition can be delegated to systems\", and the archive names electronic literature as a precedent of its own experimental corpus and as a comparator of its literary corpus. Of the authors whose works the lab holds, one names a room: the Reading Room, dedicated on July 23, 2025 with a Traversal by Stephanie Strickland and Grigar of Egypt: The Book of Going Forth by Day, bears the name of \"the pioneering artist Marjorie C. Luesebrink who published under the name M. D. Coverley\". The lab's Wikipedia article counts over 60 works from M.D. Coverley among those the lab serves; the article on The NEXT records that Luesebrink created and published 27 of the 66 works in her collection under the pen name M.D. Coverley, the others being her donated copies of other authors' works, and describes her as an artist \"who publishes under the name M. D. Coverley\". The lab's own site names authors throughout its history, each beside the work the lab traversed, restored, reconstructed, built or received: Moulthrop, McDaid, Jackson, Larsen, Disch, Holeton, Bly, Kolb, and Bigelow, Strickland, Luesebrink and Hayles among the repository's collections. The census, reading the university page, finds that it \"names a library of 200 electronic literary works and lists none of their authors\": the catalogue that would show how works and authors are named was not saved, the titles and authors of the library stand unchecked, the page records nothing of how the works' authorship is attributed, and on the saved evidence the lab is no record of authors or names. In the census's reading the saved page records the lab as preservation infrastructure, a library of works with the hardware to read them, and nothing of whose authorship it keeps or under what name, and the lab meets the question of heteronymy only through The NEXT, which it manages and where author collections stand under published names and pen names. In the archive's typology of authorial positions, pseudonymous authorship is a person writing in their own voice under a different name, the authorial position attached to the pseudonym; EA-HETERONYMY-01 holds that a pseudonym \"changes the label attached to an authorial function\", which the reader, the archive or the eventual biographer can trace back to the civil identity behind it, and that the civil name is the atomic unit of attribution in the systems that govern legitimacy. The census finds no limits stated on the saved page and no licence in its saved sources, leaves machine participation and attribution unanswered, leaves the ELMCIP record unread because only a redirect was saved, and holds the lab's standing as an aggregator open beyond its stated library and catalogue. The Capture Registry records that, asked for the lab by name on 1 November 2026, Google's AI Overview gave its founding, director, mission, holdings, rooms and contact details, mostly from the lab's own site, and composed the lab at its grain from that newer site. The registry finds the composition's counts, over 80 computers and thousands of works, larger than those of the 2021-era page on which the census row's counts rest, and its founding year, 2011, absent from the census row; it notes that the composition's first and most-cited card is the lab's own site, which the census did not save. It records the composition's statement that the lab is the Electronic Literature Organization's primary archiving center and manages The NEXT, and finds the archiving role on no source saved for the census, a role the lab's Wikipedia article states. It finds that whose works the library holds, and under what names, is not carried: the one author the composition names stands in the name of a room, under the civil name, while The NEXT's Wikipedia account holds 27 of her works under the pen name M.D. Coverley, and the one work it names, Amnesia (1986), is a game given without its author. The archive's measure of authorial lineage asks of a transmitted sign whether it retains its maker's name, pseudonym and institutional context. The archive's account of the existence tax holds that a heteronym is a real author's practice, that a system composing an answer about a work describes a work a source shows to exist as existing, at its own level, and that one mode of the tax describes work whose stated purpose is to preserve as weaponized or adversarial, an archive as a hostile force.", "rail": [], "note": "L(B ∪ A) in the equal-terms case (§0.4), realized as the knowledge object (objects.KO); its rail is the compression's, by lineage." } }, "field": [ { "id": "B1", "card": "electronicliteraturelab.org — The Electronic Literature Lab", "fetched": "fetched 2026-11-01T06:14:38Z HTTP 200, sha256 dd49173460a7c267a01f870dc466ba3aba4e219962da1b272904b76de39ae257", "origin": "card", "pool": "B_D" }, { "id": "B2", "card": "Washington State University — Electronic Literature Lab | Washington State University", "fetched": "fetched 2026-11-01T06:14:21Z HTTP 200, sha256 cb62790d8dcf7f89b42c4a2cde95b2f9391eb2b7fbf624e1f264583326ab9e69 (census copy, gunzipped)", "origin": "card", "pool": "B_D" }, { "id": "B3", "card": "Wikipedia — Electronic Literature Lab - Wikipedia", "fetched": "fetched 2026-11-01T06:14:38Z–06:14:40Z (one run: rendered page, then raw wikitext) HTTP 200, sha256 f15cc9b4ae6c0ebfd2633710484722b236d052b5b7e490102643ad8c898891dd", "origin": "card", "pool": "B_D" }, { "id": "B4", "card": "Instagram·electronicliteraturelab — Electronic Literature Lab (@electronicliteraturelab) - Instagram", "fetched": "unreachable/unread: redirected to https://www.instagram.com/accounts/login/?next=...

Composed from its cards: the definition at the grain of B3 F45 with B2 F41's 'media archaeology' and B3 F46's 2011 (B3 F59, B1 F1); the mission as 'archive, restore, conserve, and present' (B1 F4, F25; B3 F45); the collection with B3's counts, 'over 80' (F51) and 'thousands' for 'over 3,000' (F52), and Amnesia (1986) (F54); the ELO archiving role (B3 F49) as 'primary', a word on no card, and the management of The NEXT (B1 F6); the four rooms (B1 F8, F10, F11, F12; B4 F64); the website (B3 F75).
