I find it much easier to think of my likely future publication and presentation venues if I consider choices made by contemporary scholars engaged in e-government research. By exploring the Penn State Libraries Databases, such as the ISI Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library, as well as some individual scholars websites, I can come up with a number of possibilities. Here are some of my choices.
1.
Government Information Quarterly (GIQ) is an international journal of that is published by Elsevier, the world's leading publisher of science and health information.Elsevier takes its name from the original House of Elzevir Dutch family publishing house founded in 1580, although the modern publishing house was founded in 1880.
GIG is a cross-disciplinary and refereed journal and it covers information and telecommunications policy, information management, IT planning and management, e-government practices, policies and issues relevant to all levels of government within the USA and abroad.
2. The Society of Social Implications of Technology (SSIT) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE) publishes a quarterly journal, IEEE Technology and Society Magazine, and sponsors periodic conferences, The International Symposium on Technology and Society (ISTAS).
This periodical invites feature articles (refereed), special articles, and commentaries
on topics within the scope of the IEEE Society on Social Implications
of Technology, in the broad areas of social implications of
electrotechnology, history of electrotechnology, and engineering ethics.
3.
Communications of the ACM is the flagship monthly publication of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and was first published in 1957. It focuses on the practical implications of advances in IT, and while the magazine's content is subject to peer review, the articles published do often simply summarize research that could have been published someplace else.
Conference participation is extremely important for developing a successful career in academia. As a Ph.D. student, I have numerous conference and/or symposium venues to explore and choose from. Periodical scanning of the professional association websites (e.g., IEEE, ACM) in search of upcoming events may be a useful technique.
One of the conferences that I find particularly interesting in view of my research agenda is an Annual International Conference on Digital Government Research. The last conference was held in Montreal (Canada) in May 2008.
This conference is a forum for presentation and discussion of interdisciplinary digital government research and practice. It is organized by the Digital Government Society of North America (DGSNA) and receives major support from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF).
