Implications for IS in Australia No generalist ANZ IS journal ranked at A* or A Therefore: ▫Institutions may mandate a move from unranked and lesser ranked journals ▫There will be an inevitable drift away by authors from unranked and lesser ranked journals ▫A significant change is required for a ranking to be reviewed On this basis, the future viability of all these journals, including AJIS, is in doubt.
