Friend of the Blog 7 — The Video Game History Foundation Library
Founded by Frank Cifaldi in 2017, the Video Game History Foundation (VGHF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to “preserving, celebrating, and teaching the history of video games.” On January 30, VGHF library director Phil Salvador announced the “early access” launch of the organization’s new digital library. According to Salvador, the searchable online platform features a “curated selection” of materials from VGHF’s physical archive, including over 1,500 out-of-print video game magazines, directories and maps from the first 12 years of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, and the personal papers of retired video game producer Mark Flitman.
