New members of the Editorial Board

With great pleasure the editorial office of Interdisciplinary Information Sciences would like to announce that five new members from abroad have joined the editorial board. Making every effort to maintain the international standard, we provide a forum for worldwide scholarly discussion and serve as a valuable knowledge resource for the academic community. On this occasion changes in the domestic members of the editorial board have occurred. The Editor-in-Chief would like to thank those who have retired from the board for their support during the past years, and we hope that they will continue to assist the journal cooperating with the continuing and newly appointed editorial board members.

The editorial office would like to take this opportunity to express their sincere thanks to all who have helped Interdisciplinary Information Sciences in the past, and would highly appreciate your constant help and support in the future.
