Selection Process

Three finalists (or more in the case of a tie) will be selected by the Associate Editors/Department Editors of the IS Department through an approval voting process. Finalists are then announced to the IS Society members and the winner will be selected from among the finalists by a vote of the IS Society members. The winning paper will be announced at the ISS business meeting this Fall and receive a plaque.

It is a condition of the award that the authors of the winner paper be members of the Information Systems Society, and, except for unusual circumstances approved by the President of ISS, remain members of the Society until they retire from full-time work.
