[AISWorld] Call for Nominations for Best IS Publication of the Year Awards 2011

[Fred Niederman]

Colleagues,

The International Conference on Information Systems (ICIS) and its
Senior Scholars will be presenting their "Best IS Publications of the
Year Awards” to five journal articles published in 2011.  The
presentations will be made at ICIS in Orlando.
>
An editor-in-chief may nominate an IS article from his or her journal
by sending a PDF version of the published article to either Allen S.
Lee (atlenslee at alum.mit.edu), Fred Niederman (at niederfa at slu.edu) or
Claudia Loebbecke (claudia.loebbecke at uni-koeln.de).  Please note that
editors-in-chief may not nominate articles for which they also serve
as author. The award will reflect the article's contribution to theory
in the IS field, its contribution to practice in the IS field, the
uniqueness/originality of its ideas, and the quality of its arguments.
 Articles must contribute to the IS field rather than simply refer to
computing, and must be published during the 2011 calendar year. Only
one article published in 2011 may be nominated from any journal.
>
Nominations will be open until June 30, 2012.
>
Members of the Best IS Publications of the Year Awards committee will
select the five best papers.  The months of July and August are
designated for reviewing the nominated papers, commenting on them, and
voting.  Any committee member who authored a nominated paper will not
participate in the consideration of that paper.  No committee member
currently serves as the Editor in Chief of an IS journal eligible for
best paper submissions.  The five best papers will not be ranked.
Official notifications of the award winning papers will be made at a
ceremony at this year’s meeting of the International Conference on
Information Systems in Orlando.
