Access(ing) the Coordination of Writing Networks
Computers and Composition, 38, 68–78.
TL;DR:
The story of Diana is presented as a problematic case study through which scholars are asked to think about accessing in deeply ecological and newly traceable ways and challenges researchers to think of accessing as enacted, distributed, and traceable across networks.

In this article, I engage the discussion of access within the field of computers and writing and revisit the issue of the digital divide. My discussion of access focuses on operationalizing access as what Annette Powell calls “access(ing)” (2007), a process of enacting and coordination between humans and nonhumans. Drawing on Actor-Network Theory and digital literacy narrative methodology, I present the story of Diana as a problematic case study through which I ask scholars to think about accessing in deeply ecological and newly traceable ways. I end by noting that stories like Diana's challenge researchers to think of accessing as enacted, distributed, and traceable across networks.
