[Air-L] Exciting publicaton opportunity

[Barry Wellman]

You're invited to submit your paper for consideration in a special issue 
of the journal Information, Communication & Society (ICS). For the 11th 
year, the journal ICS will publish a special issue in cooperation with 
CITAMS. It will be published speedily – before the next ASA meeting in 
August 2018.

Eligible papers are those presented at the 2017 Annual Meeting of the American 
Sociological Association, including roundtables, and the Media Pre-Conference 
in Montreal, CA. You’ll have more than a month to polish up your presentations, 
as the full papers are not due until October 1, 2017 – firm deadline.

The special issue welcomes papers that focus on any facet of media, technology, 
communication, information, or related topics. This is a great opportunity to 
have your paper read by an interested audience, and the acceptance rate is 
quite good.

ICS has enabled 'green open access,' meaning that authors may post pre-print 
versions of their paper on their own website, in an institutional repository or 
in a subject repository, such as the SocARXIV.
Please submit manuscripts for consideration through ScholarOne, available at: 
http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/rics. If you do not have an account, you will 
need to create one. Also, be sure to check the box for “Special Issue” and 
indicate “CITAMS” in it, so that it will be routed appropriately.

All accepted manuscripts must respect a word limit of 6,000-8,000 words 
(depending on the number of submissions accepted) and conform to the journal's 
submission guidelines.
