How do we ensure digital games remain playable, teachable, and meaningful for generations to come?

"Save and Continue" brings together educators, game industry professionals, librarians, and archivists to explore the future of digital game access and preservation. Through focused conversations spanning classroom use, licensing realities, and long-term technical stewardship, the program examines how to sustain playable, research-ready game collections in a rapidly evolving landscape.

This day-long summit held at the University of Chicago Library on May 4, 2026 centers on collaboration across sectors, engaging experts in game instruction, entertainment law, digital preservation, and cultural heritage. The program concludes with a moderated discussion that looks ahead, identifying shared challenges and opportunities for advancing integrated preservation efforts.

Join us to help shape a collective path forward for preserving games and their cultural record.
