Advances in information and communication technologies are associated with a wide and increasing range of social consequences, which are experienced by individuals, work groups, organizations, interorganizational networks, and societies at large. Understanding the relationships between communication, digital technologies and organizations is an increasingly important and urgent societal and scholarly concern in many disciplinary fields.Information and Organization seeks to publish original articles on the relationships between digital technologies, communication, and organizations. It seeks a scholarly understanding that is based on empirical research and builds novel theoretical contributions. A particular focus of Information and Organization is to publish qualitative and interpretive research which adopts case studies, ethnography and in-depth longitudinal empirical studies, including critical theory and science and technology studies.Papers that provoke critical thinking on important subjects are welcomed, including articles that focus on research impact and contributions to knowledge in our special section (RICK). The aim is to provide a forum that brings together innovative, reflective, and rigorous scholarship while being relevant for practice.Of special interest are contributions on the social construction of information technologies, the implications of digital technologies for innovation and organizational change, alternative organizational designs such as virtual organizations and ecosystems, ICT's for institutional and societal change, global strategy and digitalization, data driven organizations and changes in work, ethics of digital technologies and data governance.

The Journal for Information ProfessionalsThe International Journal of Information Management (IJIM) is an international, peer-reviewed journal which aims to bring its readers the very best analysis and discussion in the developing field of information management.The journal: • Keeps the reader briefed with major papers, reports and reviews • Is topical: Viewpoint articles and other regular features including Research Notes, Case Studies and a Reviews section help keep the reader up to date with current issues. • Focusses on high quality papers that address contemporary issues for all those involved in information management and which make a contribution to advancing information management theory and practice.Information is critical for the survival and growth of organisations and people. The challenge for Information management is now less about managing activities that collect, store and disseminate information. Rather, there is greater focus on managing activities that make changes in patterns of behaviour of customers, people, and organizations, and information that leads to changes in the way people use information to engage in knowledge focussed activities.Information management covers a wide field and we encourage submissions from diverse areas of practice and settings including business, health, education and government.Topics covered include:Aspects of information management in learning organisations, health care (patients as well health workers and managers), business intelligence, security in organizations, social interactions and community development, knowledge management, information design and delivery, information for health care, Information for knowledge creation, legal and regulatory issues, IS-enabled innovations in information, content and knowledge management, philosophical and methodological approaches to information management research, new and emerging agendas for information research and reflective accounts of professional practice.International Journal of Information Management is the companion title to the open access journal International Journal of Information Management Data Insights.In 2002, Elsevier launched Library Connect, a new initiative bringing together many of Elsevier's library-focused efforts.

A companion title to the International Journal of Information Management, IJIM Data Insights is a peer reviewed gold open access journal focusing on empirical evidences for information management using emerging data science methods.Data science is an emerging research methodology that contributes to information management through the influence of data analysis methods borrowed from disciplines like computer science, operations research and statistics. It attempts to extract knowledge and generate inferences by using a variety of methods, processes, algorithms and perspectives to provide actionable insights into a context or problem. The empirical evidences could be extracted from structured, semi-structured or unstructured data and contribute to information management and data driven decision making literature.IJIM Data Insights is interested in publishing state-of-the-art articles which address one or more the following themes and contexts:Empirical studies which use a data-driven approach for contributing towards information management literature.Data science and big data studies surrounding unstructured data analysis like opinion mining, sentiment analysis, text mining, image mining, video analytics and network science generated by individuals, groups, communities and firms.Studies which adopt emerging methods like machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms for improving decision making and information management are welcome if they provide novel empirical evidences.Case studies on information management which demonstrate theoretical insights based on empirical evidences in an organizational or national setting.Studies in related disciplines in management and social sciences can be published if they contribute to information management and data-based decision making literature adequately.The journal publishes studies that validate theoretical models based on cross-sectional and longitudinal data, experiments, and even qualitative research. However, strength of data analysis for demonstrating findings objectively would be very critical for these studies to get published.Studies surrounding emerging technologies like blockchain, IoT and others which use machine learning and data science are welcome, if they are connected with information management and data driven decision making.Case studies which demonstrate a practical application of the methods and practices of projects using data science and information management would also be welcome.
Library & Information Science Research, a cross-disciplinary and refereed journal, focuses on the research process in library and information science, especially demonstrations of innovative methods and theoretical frameworks or unusual extensions or applications of well-known methods and tools. Library & Information Science Research publishes research articles primarily from a social science perspective.LISR does not normally publish technical information science studies (e.g., algorithmic methods related to information retrieval or natural language processing) or most bibliometric studies, as these would find greater readership in the many fine journals covering these areas.All papers are subject to a double-blind reviewing process.Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
