The language of the conference, and of all paper submissions, is English. If authors are concerned about the quality of their written English, we recommend engaging the services of a proofreader before submitting their paper(s).
4. Originality
Submissions to ECIS 2022 must be original; that is, submissions must not be concurrently under consideration for publication or presentation elsewhere. If a paper has previously been published as a working paper or pre-print, the authors are asked to clarify this as part of the submission process.
5. Anonymizing of Papers for Blind Review
For initial submissions, authors name(s) must not appear in the body of the paper (including the abstract). Please note that if author names are revealed anywhere in the paper, they will be desk rejected outright without further review.
Authors must eliminate references to their institutions and sponsors, as well as to their unpublished and published work, if these references reveal the identity of the author(s).
Authors are asked to remove any personal information from document properties. To do this in MS Word, click on “Tools > Options” and then click on the Security tab. Under Privacy Options, select “Remove personal information from file properties on save.” (Panel proposals do not have to be made anonymous for review.)
The “Acknowledgements” section should be left blank until the final paper version is prepared for the conference proceedings.
6. Copyright Note
For all papers accepted at ECIS 2022, authors retain the copyrights. However, by submitting a paper, authors agree that AIS can publish and reproduce any accepted papers in the ECIS 2022 proceedings in the format of AIS’ choosing (e-Library, printed proceedings, etc.). Authors are encouraged to develop their papers for journal publication after the conference. Both completed research papers (RP) and research in-progress papers (RiP) accepted and presented in interactive presentation sessions (or as posters) will be published in the ECIS conference proceedings and made available in the AIS Electronic Library.
Should you have any questions, please contact the chairs of the conference track you plan to submit your paper to, ideally before November 10, 2021.
