title = "The Ephemeral and Information Systems Research: Conceptualizing Ephemerality in a Post-pandemic World",
abstract = "The Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated business use of digital technology with ephemeral functionality. However, ephemerality as a concept is not well defined in the information systems (IS) literature, making application and operationalization challenging. We conduct an interdisciplinary review of the temporal and material qualities of the ephemeral. We then conduct a standalone review of ephemerality in IS. Based upon our reviews, we propose a definition for ephemeral and develop a framework of ephemeral characteristics. We outline incongruence between this framework and IS conceptualization of ephemerality.",
