Journal of Modern Information (formerly known as Information Knowledge) was founded in 1980. It is a core academic journal in the field of information resource management sponsored by Jilin Provincial Institute of Scientific and Technical Information and the Chinese Association for Science and Technology Intelligence. It focuses on the latest progress of theoretical research and practical innovation in intelligence for national strategic needs, pays attention to the development direction of the discipline, focuses on cutting-edge hotspots, and builds a distinctive academic exchange platform to promote the development of the academic community. In recent years, Journal of Modern Information has made breakthroughs and kept up with the times in research topics, featured columns, content brands, and publicity and promotion. It has been selected as a source journal in the Chinese Social Science Citation Index (CSSCI), a core journal in the Chinese Humanities and Social Sciences Abstracts (AMI), a core journal in Chinese Science and Technology (Social Science Edition), and a core academic journal in RCCSE China. The academic quality and influence of the journal have been improving year by year, making due contributions to the development of intelligence studies and intelligence work.

In the new era, facing profound social changes and rapid technological development, Journal of Modern Information will further position itself in the field of intelligence studies and intelligence work, focusing on major national strategic needs, exploring and solving major social problems, guiding researchers to continuously innovate theoretical research, and expanding practical application scenarios. It will contribute intelligence wisdom to accelerate the implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy and achieve high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-strengthening. After soliciting opinions from the academic and industrial communities, Journal of Modern Information has launched the 2023 Key Topics Guide, and expects experts and scholars to actively participate.
