- v.6.1, is at the printer's and will be mailed out July '92.

- There is still an
- opportunity for new subscribers to take the current volume. For those
- unfamiliar with this journal, it was founded and formerly edited by Peter Keen
- as an interdisciplinary, international journal providing a cross-section of
- material from "reference disciplines" pertinent to understanding organizational
- and end-user issues in information technology. My concern as editor since v.3
- has been to expand on the original charter and provide a venue where IS
- research and socially-minded system development papers by computer scientists
- could regularly appear side-by-side. The goal is to establish a common
- conversation for these two fields, as they affect frameworks and choices in the
- design and implementation of information technology. Past issues have featured
- work on:
- Scandinavian Approaches to System Development, Tamar Bermann, ed.
- Strategic Systems in Finance, Eric Clemons, ed.
- Technology and Public Policy, Ben Amick, ed.
- Computer-Supported Cooperative Work, Margrethe Olson, ed
- and regular issues featuring
- Kling & Iacono, The institutional character of computerized IS
- Klein & Hirschheim, Legitimation in IS development
- Rein & Ellis, The Nick experiment: implications for groupware
- Reder & Schwab, Communicative economy of workgroup: genres..
- Bowers & Churcher, Developing linguistic perspectives on CSCW
- Sorgaard, Transaction supporting systems and organizational change
- Grudin, Why groupware applications fail
- Orlikowski, The information systems profession
-
- Volume 6 will feature papers by Robey & Zmud, Markus, Hellman, Sassone, Igbaria
- & Toraskar, George, Iacono & Kling, Clement, Kautz, a special issue on
- Prototyping edited by Heinz Zullighoven of Bonn University, and a special issue
- on Computing and Women's Administrative Careers in Germany & Austria.
-
- We are now reviewing papers for v.7. A variety of work is published, including
- case study and theoretical papers. Material must be important, interesting,
- literate, and well-reasoned. Paradigmatic background should be made explicit.
- The journal reaches an interdisciplinary audience that includes practitioners,
- policymakers, and researchers worldwide. We will mail complimentary copies of
- to five colleagues of the authors contributing to an issue.
-
- We offer an individual rate of $65 in connection with this advertisement.
- Institutional subscriptions are $135, overseas add $20 shipping for either
