Unique attributes

Online Information Review is an international, double blind peer-reviewed, ISI-listed journal devoted to research in the broad field of online information in academic, government, corporate, scientific and commercial contexts. Within this broad framework the journal seeks to provide a forum for experts from a range of information-related disciplines, including information science, information technology, information management, knowledge management and related social sciences.

‘Online information’ encompasses any information that is stored and viewed in electronic form, from e-books to databases, document management systems and any other information-bearing artefacts in electronic format.

OIR focuses on issues relating to online systems, services and resources, and their use, with a particular focus on on the processes and procedures involved in creating, managing, utilising, disseminating and repackaging online information (including social, political and ethical aspects). OIR invites full research and conceptual papers (up to 7000 words) in these fields, as well as shorter research notes (under 3000 words).

Coverage includes (but is not limited to):

• New approaches to information resource design on the web
• Information quality, trust and credibility
• Usability issues of online resources and websites
• Differences between web databases and their capabilities and limitations
• Choosing, evaluating, exchanging and maximising the content of online information resources of any kind
• Getting the best out of search engines
• New approaches to search engine design on the web
• Rating and choosing search engines
• Web use and content in various contexts
