Managing the Scientific Literature Overload: Digital Object Identifiers and Scopus

Abstract

JMWAIS is part of the growing expansion of digital publishing. JMWAIS is encouraging active researchers to share their scholarship widely. The Journal of the Midwest Association for Information Systems (JMWAIS) is contributing to the expansion of scholarly publication and to the scientific literature overload. JMWAIS editors also seek to participate in possible solutions to better managing, finding, and disseminating scholarly communications. To further this goal, in Fall 2017, JMWAIS editors created Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) for all previously published articles. Future JMWAIS articles will also be assigned individual DOI. Digital knowledge can be filtered and managed.
