ABSTRACT
Digital technologies and environments offer many affordances in terms of texts and practices. Texts can be reproduced and distributed. They can be searched for and made searchable, and they can be fragmented, reconstructed, and curated. But what are the implications of this new textual world in terms of authorship, commodification, and intellectual property? What values are brought to bear in this writing, production, and distribution of digital work and how are conventional literacy practices being disrupted?
