As part of efforts to improve member services, IRMA recently initiated Special Research Clusters (SRCs). The primary aim of IRMA SRCs is to help develop contacts and maintain communication among its members with similar research interests. Communication within IRMA SRCs can be done in several ways - list servers, web sites, newsletters and also online discussion groups. SRCs can also offer workshops/tutorials, share bibliographic databases, as well as work with IRMA journals editors on special issues.

Interested in participating in the above SRCs? Simply check out the 'How to join' link at above websites.
