Editors: Jan Renkema (Tilburg University), Wilbert Spooren (Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam), Paul Stiff (University of Reading), and Sue Walker (University of Reading).IDJ (Information Design Journal) is a forum for both practitioners and researchers. It aims to enhance design knowledge and practice so that informed design can support people's interactions with printed and electronic materials, whether using verbal text, numbers, pictures, diagrams or other forms of representation. IDJ brings together the variety of ways of investigating and thinking about the effective design of information in various genres. The editors welcome research papers, case histories, and reviews of research and practice. Contributions should be relevant to a multi-disciplinary audience, make clear their implications for designing and new research, and be based on appropriate evidence.
