What is JCIS?

The Journal for Computer Information Systems (JCIS) is a highly rated quarterly peer reviewed academic journal. It serves as a forum for the International Association of Computer Information Systems members and other academics and information systems and business professionals to present their research and ideas. Each issue provides a wealth of timely and informative articles.

What is IIS?

Issues in Information Systems (IIS) is a refereed, serial publication of IACIS that is registered with the US Library of Congress (ISSN 1529-7314) and listed in the Eighth Edition of Cabell's Directory of Publishing Opportunities in Management & Marketing; and Cabell's Directory of Publishing Opportunities in Computer Science & Business Information Systems.

What is the difference between IIS and JCIS?

Both the Journal of Computer Information Systems (JCIS) and Issues in Information Systems (IIS) are publications of IACIS. JCIS is different from IIS in that JCIS is the premier official journal publication of IACIS, which is published quarterly. JCIS applies a much more rigorous and lengthy review process, and it is more selective in the articles it publishes. The acceptance rate for JCIS is 8-10%, whereas the acceptance rate for IIS is over 40%. Whereas IIS is published once a year in conjunction with an annual conference, JCIS is published every three months. The manuscripts selected for publication in IIS are expected to be presented at the IACIS Annual Conference.

Can I resubmit a manuscript accepted for publication in IIS to JCIS?

No. JCIS accepts only research papers that are original work, no part of which has been submitted for publication elsewhere (except as brief abstracts). If authors submit an abstract to the conference, which if accepted will be published in the Proceedings, they can submit a full paper (based on that abstract) for review to JCIS. However, if they submit a full paper to the conference and that paper is accepted, their paper will be published in Issues in Information Systems and could not be published again in JCIS or any other journal. Material published in IIS by the authors before submission to any journal is considered prior publication.

How can I recommend JCIS to my library?

It is important that the work published in JCIS reach the widest audience possible. One means to accomplish this is by making the Journal available in libraries.

How long will it take for my manuscript to be reviewed?

Manuscripts will be reviewed by the JCIS Screening Committee within two weeks from submission.

Typically, the blind review process takes approximately eight to twelve weeks. The JCIS does not process any submission that does not comply with the requirements found in the submission guidelines.
