        Subject: Archiving Machines: From Punch Cards to Platforms

Dear Colleagues,

I am thrilled to share that my new book Archiving Machines: From Punch Cards to
Platforms is now available at MIT Press
<https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262553247/archiving-machines/>. 

The book unpacks the history of digital data management, from magnetic tape 
to early PDAs, charting the struggle between computing technologies and 
cultures of information that assert control over our data today. I think the topic 
will be of interest to our community!

The book has generously been made available for open access through MIT. More
info and discount codes for purchase can be found at:
<http://archivingmachines.com>.

If you would be interested in setting up a book talk or a virtual class visit,
please reach out!

Sincerely yours,
Amelia
