The International Journal of Industrial Management has made the decision to change the volume/issue numbering system beginning with March 2023 issue. In a nod to our increasingly electronic consumption of content, numbering every issue separately as an independent volume unto itself is simpler for readers, especially those referencing content. Additionally, such a numbering system allows our production team to assemble several issues concurrently, giving them the flexibility to move forward with production on future issues. This flexibility for production means faster publication times for our authors and readers.
