Advance notice is required for the use of computer records. Original physical digital media is restricted.
An access terminal for born-digital materials in the collection is available by appointment for reading room viewing and listening only. Researchers may view an item's original container and/or carrier, but the physical carriers themselves are not available for use because of preservation concerns.
Conditions Governing Access
Materials are open without restrictions, with the exception of Matt Howard's and Lisa Ling's interviews, which are restricted until 2026.
Conditions Governing Use
Any rights (including copyright and related rights to publicity and privacy) held by Matt Howard, the donor of this collection, were relinquished and transferred to the public domain in 2016 by the donor.
