This half-day workshop is for discussion and give and take between participants and the Editors-in-Chief of ASIS&T publications: Steve Sawyer for the Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST), Lisa Given for the Annual Review of Information Science and Technology (ARIST), and Chirag Shah for Information Matters. The workshop will consist of three separate 60-minute sessions of discussion and Q&A for each journal, plus some time for discussion and Q&A with all three Editors-in-Chief and editorial board members. Pre-workshop, participants will submit “Ask the Editor” questions on how to write a successful article at any of the publications. During the Information Matters session, Chirag Shah will answer questions, address current IM topics and discuss how to write the specialized IM article. For JASIST, Steve Sawyer will organize small groups to review synthetic abstracts to seed a discussion of the criteria JASIST uses to assess submissions, and will answer questions about how to submit a successful JASIST paper. For ARIST, Lisa Given invites participants to submit “Expression of Interest” paper ideas for workshopping during the session, will explain the “Expression of Interest” pitch process for new submissions, and give tips for writing comprehensive reviews for ARIST. Additional registration fee applies.
