Publications
The III publishes a number of periodicals. At the time of the merger between the III and ISICS, the publications of the two institutions were consolidated and placed under a new editorial/publishing structure. The main publications are the Journal of Information Studies, Newsletter, Annual Report, and the III Book Series. Each publication has its own function while also being linked to the others as elements in the unified publishing activity of the III.
