This long-standing (45+ years) high-quality peer-reviewed publication welcomes papers on any topic or aspect related to information science history. See below a request from the Managing Editor to me to look for potential authors. Since I don't know what many of you are working on, I'm broadcasting this to everyone in the SIG rather than contacting only selected individuals. Please consider this journal next time you have a manuscript ready to submit. Or, if you are still at the idea or drafting stage, I urge you to contact William Aspray to discuss your project.

We, at the journal, have not received any papers about history of information sciences in the last couple of years. We were wondering if you had any suggestions of authors who might be interested in writing for us. If you can think of scholars that would be a good fit for the journal, you can choose to solicit them on behalf of the journal or Dr. Aspray can write to them once we have some names from you. Thank you for your service on the board. We appreciate it very much. Thank you, Nida -- Nida Kazim Managing Editor, Information & Culture: A Journal of History -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
