Abstract
The development of internet literature has become an important literature phenomenon, and the new changes brought about in literature have attracted wide academic attention and research interest. In this light, the symposium "Internet and Literary Transformation" was held in July 2013 in Lhasa, during which scholars reflected the implications and value of the literary texts on the internet. The participants claimed that internet literature should be approached without the conventional concepts about literature and the prejudice about internet literature. They promoted a broader concept of literature or culture and proposed that scholars should be engaged with the site of internet literature by empirical experience and reading the texts. The consensus is that the research on internet literature should have an appropriate perspective and foster the better relationship between researchers and the internet writers. The participating scholars appealed that, given the popularity of internet literature among the college students, there should be courses of internet literature in University literature.
