Ephemera are materials created for short-term purposes—tickets, posters, pamphlets, memes, status updates—that collectors and archives later treat as historical evidence. Digital ephemera (stories, disappearing messages, temporary landing pages) intensify appraisal questions for Born-digital archives.
