MIS Quarterly Executive Is Now Green Open Access

Recently, MIS Quarterly Executive joined five other AIS journals to become Green Open Access, which allows authors to immediately self-archive their articles without an embargo period. As an independent, self-publishing, member-based association, AIS is years ahead of for-profit publishing houses with author-friendly policies, including Green Open Access. 

Through these author-friendly policies, AIS is able to provide quality research articles and intellectual equity to the entire field of Information Systems.

AIS’s self-archiving option pertains to the version of the article that received the official acceptance letter from the editor after successfully passing peer review (i.e., post-print or Author’s Accepted Manuscript) or the final, official published version after the publisher has copy-edited, formatted and distributed it (i.e., version of record). Authors may self-archive the version of their research article that they choose on their website, or on a publicly-accessible institutional or subject-based repository.

The listing of AIS journals that are now Green Open Access include:

• MIS Quarterly Executive (MISQE)
  
• Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS)
  
• Communications of the Association for Information Systems (CAIS)
  
• Pacific Asia Journal of the Association for Information Systems (PAJAIS)
  
• Transactions on Human-Computer Interaction (THCI)
  
• Transactions on Replication Research (TRR)
