About the journal

Knowledge management is a term that has worked its way into the mainstream of both academic and business arenas since it was first coined in the 1980s. Interest has increased rapidly during the last decade and shows no signs of abating. The current state of the knowledge management field is that it encompasses four overlapping areas:
- Managing knowledge (creating/acquiring, sharing, retaining, storing, using, updating, retiring)
- Organisational learning
- Intellectual capital
- Knowledge economics
Within (and across) these, knowledge management has to address issues relating to technology, people, culture and systems.
Perhaps as a consequence of this diversity, the knowledge management literature is at present fragmented. Many of the most influential articles on knowledge management appear in journals in fields as diverse as information systems, general management, strategy, organisational sociology or human resources. The literature also often, somewhat misleadingly, presents the subject as split. Current examples of these "splits", which should rather be debates, include those between the "codification" and "collaboration" schools of thought, and between "Western" (meaning North American) and "Eastern" (meaning Japanese) approaches. The intention for this journal is not only to accommodate these and other perspectives, but also to seek common ground between them.Topof pag
Overall aims and content
To provide an outlet for high-quality, peer-reviewed articles on all aspects of managing knowledge. This will include not just those focused on the organisational level, but all levels from that of the individual to that of the nation or profession. This will include both theoretical and practical aspects, and especially the relationship between the two. There will be a particular emphasis on cross-disciplinary approaches, and on the mixing of "hard" (e.g. technological) and "soft" (e.g. cultural or motivational) issues. Rigorous contributions from both academics and practitioners are welcomed.
Articles may be empirical research papers, theoretical papers, conceptual papers, case studies or surveys.
KMRP will fill the need for a journal specifically concentrating on knowledge management that maintains the highest standards of rigour, and publishes articles that reflect greater multidisciplinary work and/or conceptual integration than those currently published in existing outlets.
A cross-disciplinary focus will also enable articles in the journal to address other important tensions in the field of knowledge management, such as those between:
- Strategy and operations
- People and technology
- Short-term and long-term needs
- The organisation and the individual

Open Access & Self Archiving
Authors of accepted papers can opt to pay an Article Processing Charge of £1600 / $2600 (+VAT where applicable) for their articles to be made Open Access online immediately upon publication. By paying this charge authors are also permitted to post the final, published PDF of their article on a website, institutional repository or other free public server, immediately on publication.
Please see our FAQs for further details or download our license to publish form.
Palgrave Macmillan's publishing policies ensure that authors can fully comply with the public access requirements of many major funding bodies worldwide - please visit www.sherpa.ac.uk for more information. However, it is the author's responsibility to take the necessary actions to achieve compliance. These may include self archiving, opting into Palgrave Macmillan's manuscript deposition service and/or choosing Open Access publication.
Authors of accepted articles are encouraged to submit the author's version of the accepted paper (the unedited manuscript) to their funding body's archive, for public release 18 months after publication of the final article in a full paginated journal issue. In addition, authors are encouraged to archive this version of the manuscript in their institution's repositories and on their personal websites, also 18 months after the original publication. This is in line with Palgrave Macmillan's self-archiving policy. Topof page
Ethics Policy
This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics. We expect all prospective authors to read and understand our Ethics Policybefore submitting any manuscript to this journal. This policy details the responsibilities of all authors, editors and reviewers working with and for Palgrave Macmillan Journals as well as our own ethical responsibilities. This includes, but is not limited to, plagiarism, falsification of data, misuse of third party material, fabrication of results and fraudulent authorship. Please note that submitted manuscripts may be subject to checks using the iThenticate service, in conjunction with CrossCheck, in order to detect instances of overlapping and similar text. TheiThenticate software checks submissions against millions of published research papers, documents on the web, and other relevant sources. If plagiarism or misconduct is found, consequences are detailed in the policy. Topof page
Language and Presentation
Submissions should be written in English of a good standard. Spelling should conform to The Concise Oxford Dictionary.
Submit manuscripts in Word format with at least 1.5 line spacing and ample margins. The pages of the main text should be numbered consecutively. Sections and subsections should be clearly differentiated but should not be numbered. Papers should be written without the use of footnotes.
Mathematical expressions and Greek or other symbols should be written clearly with ample spacing. Use widely accepted symbols and abbreviations, following the style of BS 1991 Part 2 1954.
Wherever possible, theorems, computer programs, lists and calculations should be placed in appendices. Topof page
Abstract and Keywords
The first page of the manuscript should contain an abstract of not more than 150 words. The abstract should be sufficiently comprehensible to enable any reader of the journal to judge the paper's potential interest. Abstracts should not contain references.
Authors should also provide 3-6 key words defining the essential content of the paper. A list of recommended keywords is given below. The keywords on the list are used in the referee selection process, and in the construction of the annual index, so it is important that authors make maximum use of this suggested list. Topof page
Content
All case-oriented papers should commence with an introduction which indicates clearly that this is an account of an actual project.
All papers should end with a conclusion which summarizes the value of the work and, where appropriate, indicates possible directions for future developments. Topof page
Figures/images may be in TIFF, GIF, JPG, PDF, Postscript, or EPS format; they must be provided in a minimum resolution of 300 dpi and should take account of the page size of the journal. Tables and graphs should be in Word or Excel format. Figures and tables should each be numbered consecutively and figure captions and table headings should be provided.
The journal is printed in black-and-white. Therefore, we prefer that authors supply figures in greyscale. Figures supplied in colour will be converted to greyscale for print unless the author confirms they will cover the cost of printing in colour (costs are available from the production/editorial office). Figures may be published in colour in the HTML (web) version free of charge. However, the PDF/print version will still be black-and-white, so authors should ensure that colour is not critical to the understanding of any figures, and should not describe elements of the figure in terms of their colours. Line graphs with several data series can usually be represented adequately in black-and-white by using different line styles and/or different shaped nodes.

References
References should be included from ALL appropriate sources and should be readily accessible to readers.
In writing your paper you are encouraged to review or reference papers in the area you are addressing previously published in the journal. This provides coherence and continuity for our readers.
References should be indicated in the text by author name(s) followed by date of publication, all in parenthesis, for example (Brown & Allen, 2001) or for a work by more than two authors (Van der Meer et al, 2005). In a list of references put oldest first. At the end of the article references should be listed (unnumbered) ordered alphabetically by author name. For papers with six authors or fewer, give the full list of authors here; for papers with more than six authors, use the form Van der Meer et al. If more than one reference has identical date and authorship use a, b, ... after the date to distinguish, for example (Allen, 2001a).
If a statement is made alleging that an author has said something or holds a particular view, possibly controversial, the page number of the referenced work MUST be quoted.
