Subject: [ISHoDs] AJIS trials Post Publication Reviews

The Australasian Journal of Information Systems is trialling a system of Post Publication Reviews. The policy governing this section of the journal is:

-=-=-=-
Post-Publication Reviews
The information systems discipline is dynamic, with developments which often outpace the normal publishing programme of a journal. AJIS is interested in developing the discipline and encouraging constructive discussion leading to the strengthening of ideas and argument. Accordingly, AJIS invites short reviews (no more than 1,000 words) of papers it has published, subject to the following guidelines:
1. All reviews must be signed and will be attributed
2. All reviews should address a substantive issue on a recently published paper
3. A submitted review will be sent to the corresponding author of that paper for a response to the review, which will be published simultaneously
4. If the corresponding author declines to respond, a note to that effect will appear with the review

The AJIS Editor-in-Chief has the final decision on whether a Post-Publication Review will be accepted.

This section is being trialled for Volume 19 and may be discontinued in following volumes.
-=-=-=-

We hope that this initiative will be perceived and used in the positive way it is intended - as a way of attracting feedback which contributes to a constructive debate within the information systems community.

Cheers
John
