DF Digital Files, 1980-2019
The Digital Files series consists chiefly of text files, with some video, audio, and image files, created by Herman Wouk between 1980 and 2019. The content includes drafts, revisions, work journals, scripts, diary entries, correspondence, business files, memoranda, photographs, interviews, audio books, and miscellaneous writings and ideas. Wouk began using a personal computer for writing, business, and personal work as early as 1980. The earliest writing projects represented in the digital files are scripts for the miniseries War and Remembrance and chapter drafts for the novel The Hope. Wouk often used a system of saving all active files from a given time to a single disk, then beginning a new disk after filling the previous disk. These chronological disks, nos. 01-29, consist of drafts, work journals, correspondence, memoranda, business files, miscellaneous ideas, diaries, and other files. Access to diary files is restricted until 2039. Diary files have been removed from digital ID sets in accordance with the restriction. The Manuscript Division retains a complete copy of all files in digital ID sets with diary files left in their original locations. Researchers can access these digital ID sets only by permission of the donor's designated representative. For names of removed files, researchers can compare the original directory listing with the payload listing or see Appendix: Restricted Digital Files.
Material types include text, video, audio, and image files.
Arranged alphabetically beginning with the chronological disks and thereafter according to the series from which the material was separated. File structure and order of the digital content within each digital ID set maintained as received.
