Abstract

The increasing emergence of internet literature in Indonesia called cybersastra has been widely discussed in the last two decades. It refers to an online literary magazine published in 2000 and in 2005. Since its popularity, many scholars and writers use it to describe various literatures. However, the availability of the magazine as primary early internet literature data has lack recorded and preserved by archivist. Even though Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine (IAWM) archived the website, its important information is uncovered and may only available in short time. Concerning its significance data as literary heritage and internet literary history, this paper aims to describe cybersastra.net as literary material to be preserved as Indonesian internet literary artefacts. The archiving process involves metadata preparation, annotations, and categorization. The preservation in digital archiving methods requires computer assistance to speed up and simplify the process of metadata, categorization, and data storage. Seven methods had been applied into research, namely: 1) data determination, 2) data collection, 3) data conversion, 4) data filtering, 5) categorization, 6) data storage, and 7) representation. The article reveals three main data significantly attached in the magazine as cybersastra artefacts.
