"Follett, Jonathan."Envisioning the Whole Digital Person" UXmatters (20 February 2007). — This article looks at the growing mass of digital artifacts that we accumulate from cradle to grave and wonders how to deal with it from the user experience or designer's point of view.

The suggestions on what to do as "user experience practitioners" will sound familiar to librarians: "...we can advocate for data portability, accessibility, and standardization and prepare ourselves and our customers to manage our new digital lives." — LRK
