Editor in Chief
Dear Readers!
Once again, I am very glad to present the fourth volume of International Journal of Information & Management Sciences (IJIMS) through the plat-form of Pakistan Librarians Welfare Organization (PLWO), Lahore – Pakistan. This is the second continuous issue of the current editorial board.
I have also good news for the researchers that we have almost fulfilled all the requirements of Higher Education Commission of Pakistan and very soon, we are going to apply for the recognition of the journal. After this, I am sure that IJIMS will attract more researchers not only within Pakistan but from the abroad as well.
This issue has 4 articles and 3 book reviews, related to the theme of the journal. To know the similarity index of the manuscripts, all documents have been checked through the plagiarism software named Turnitin and then the process of double blind peer review has been done. The sole purpose of these activities is to enhance the quality of the journal. The editorial board received many articles for this issue but we have selected only those articles which were recommended by external reviewers.
I am really very much grateful to all the editorial members of IJIMS who have worked hard to make this journal in current final shape. I also would like to pay thanks to those who have served as reviewers for IJIMS and sent their feedback well in time which was necessary to develop and publish high quality material. Thanks to the Patron of IJIMS, and President of Pakistan Librarians Welfare Organization (PLWO) for their support and guidance. Finally, I really want to thank to all the authors of manuscripts who submitted their papers for the publication in IJIMS.
We look forward to working with all of you as we continue to make International Journal of Information & Management Sciences (IJIMS) highly productive and quality conscious. We welcome your submissions, concerns, expert feedback, suggestions, recommendations and comments for the further improvement of the journal.
