Information Matters (IM) is a digital-only communication translational forum for information science, bringing relevant and current research evidence and industry developments, news, and opinion to a global public audience free of charge. The platform is sponsored by the Association for Information Science & Technology (ASIS&T).

Advertising on IM helps your organization reach a wider Information Science audience.

They not only click on our content but share it with stakeholders and use it in their daily lives, professions, and classrooms.

How to Sponsor

• Advertise your organization by sponsoring a Featured Collection of IM Articles. This allows you to have your name associated with a special topic area (e.g., AI, digital curation) for the duration of the campaign. For example, Acme organization sponsoring the AI collection (at least 10 articles) with the Gold package will have their banner and name advertised as “Special Collection on AI Sponsored by Acme” or “Acme Presents a Special Collection on AI”. This allows the organization to have their name more strongly and publicly associated with that area.
