[AISWorld] Journal of Global Information Technology Management, Volume 23, Issue 4, October 2020; and Tribute to Prof. Edgar Sibley

[Prashant Palvia]

Dear friends:

As I mentioned in my previous post, the 2019 JGITM impact factor went up
substantially and is at 1.571 (the 2018 impact factor was 0.923). The five
year impact factor went up too and is at 1.609. I believe we have the
highest impact factor among all global/international IS journals. I want to
thank our editorial team and the authors for our success.



While our acceptance rate is below 10%, it is much higher for high quality
papers and such submissions are always welcome. At a minimum each submitted
article should have the following three components:  an IS topic,
international orientation (e.g., cross cultural studies or strong
international implications), and strong evidence (e.g., survey data, case
studies, experiments, secondary data, etc.). All research methodologies are
accepted.



Please submit your manuscript to the submission site:
http://www.editorialmanager.com/ugit

The contents of the current issue are listed below. Included in
the contents is a heart-felt tribute to Professor Edgar Sibley, who passed
away in January 2020. Here is a direct link:
