Call for Applications: ARIST Editorial Board

The Annual Review of Information Science and Technology (ARIST) is seeking new members to join its Editorial Board. ARIST publishes peer-reviewed, comprehensive, and systematic reviews on topics relevant to information science, computing science, technology studies, and related fields. Published under the banner of Wiley’s Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST), ARIST’s goal is to update readers on the latest developments in these fields.

While many Editorial Board members are continuing, we are looking for new members to expand our coverage and reach. ARIST’s mandate is to be inclusive of research designs, methodologies, geographic regions, populations, socio-cultural contexts, and epistemological and philosophical approaches in its reviews. We are looking for Editorial Board members who reflect this diversity and who will help guide ARIST’s publishing focus.

Editorial Board positions are open to anyone with an advanced degree in information science, computer science, technology studies, and related fields. Preference will be given to those with strong publication profiles and experience writing and reviewing comprehensive review papers. Editorial Board members will identify potential topics and authors, review submissions, attend board meetings (online), and provide strategic advice to the Editor-in-Chief on ARIST’s development.

Please submit your CV and a brief (up to one page) expression of interest for the role, outlining your previous experience with writing and assessing comprehensive reviews, with peer review, and/or previous editorial experience. Please also include your vision of ARIST as a venue for state-of-the-art reviews in information science, computing, and technology, including the specific topics that you would like to see featured in upcoming ARIST issues. Please email your application to arist@asist.org by 5pm ET, Monday, June 3 2024.
