IJEGR is seeking high quality manuscripts on all topics related to
electronic government.  Specifically, we are seeking manuscripts for
Volume 3 No. 1 and 2, 2007.  Manuscripts may be research papers, research
notes, or papers from the practice of electronic government.  For best
consideration, manuscripts should be submitted by October 30, 2006.  We
encourage academics and practitioners to submit articles related to the
mission and coverage of IJEGR.

Mission:
The mission of the International Journal of Electronic Government Research
is to publish the very best original scholarly research on the subject of
electronic government, broadly defined, and to publish top quality
articles about electronic government from the practice. To this end, we
invite submission of papers from a variety of disciplines and
perspectives.

Coverage:
The coverage of IJEGR is international and focused on original research in
electronic government applications, management, and policy. Areas of
interest include, but are not limited to the following:
•	Best practices in e-government
•	Electronic government applications
•	Governance and electronic democracy

•	Information policy
•	Information security
•	Information privacy
•	Information access
•	Internal government processes and intranets
•	Measurement of performance
•	Strategic management of electronic government
•	Technology adoption and diffusion

Submission Guidelines:
IJEGR publishes research papers, research notes, papers from the practice
and, occasionally book reviews.

The Research Paper section publishes papers with significant original
research findings.  The research must be complete and make substantial
theoretical and/or empirical contributions to knowledge in the field.

If the manuscript is empirical, we welcome submissions that employ either
quantitative or qualitative methodologies or both.  For empirical
manuscripts, authors must clearly and concisely describe their research
methods, data or evidence, and analytical techniques.

Additionally, all manuscripts must be grounded in prior research and
scholarly literature relevant to the subjects being investigated.

Manuscripts that are essentially speculative in nature, that lack a
theoretical or empirical base, and that are not grounded in prior research
will not be considered.

The Research Note section publishes research that is novel and complete
but not as comprehensive as to qualify as a full research paper.

Along with the highly regarded peer reviewed research manuscripts in each
issue, the Government Practice section of IJEGR features practice-oriented
articles and case studies, selected or solicited by the Associate Editor
of Electronic Government Practice based on the usefulness to our readers.

Review Process:
We employ a double-blind review for all manuscripts deemed to be
consistent with our submission guidelines. All manuscripts must be sent
directly to the editor at ijegr at umbc.edu. Authors will be notified of the
outcome of the review process. Any question relating to the submission and
acceptance process should be directed to the journal’s editors.
