JSOMER Thematic Collections

JSOMER Thematic Collections bring together previously published articles around major areas of social media research. The collections are designed to improve discovery across volumes and issues while preserving the original version of record for every item. Collections are non-exclusive: an article may appear in more than one collection when it substantively addresses multiple themes.

Transparency notice. Each collection is an editorially curated discovery resource, not a separately published issue. Inclusion does not alter an article’s original publication date, volume, issue, pagination, DOI, peer-review history, license, or version of record.
