摘要

This issue marks the end of the third and last year of my term as Editor-in-Chief of ISR. Three years ago wrote an editorial for the first issue that set the tone and immediate goals for the journal, summarized as follows: ISR has established itself as one of a small set of top-tier academic journals in the information systems discipline. Editorial policy changes have been designed to strengthen a number of aspects of the journal, particularly the Timeliness of the work published, without having a negative impact on the journal's reputation for publishing high-quality work (ISR website 2002). Looking back at the past three years, these goals have been met-we have decreased turnaround time by more than 50%, and the journal's ratings are as strong as (or stronger than) they were before. In this editorial note I will highlight our current processes and provide some data regarding the journal's progress over the last three years.
