This Appendix lists Professors whose background and role appear to place considerable weight on Information Systems. Appointments in cognate disciplines such as Accounting and Computer Science have been included, provided that the individual or their CV indicates a close affinity with the IS community. It does not include any of the following: Associate Professors, Visiting Professors, Adjunct Professors and Professorial Fellows (unless known to be full-time for an extended period). The intention is to identify long-term, full-time positions, and the people who are in them, or have been in them.

The starting-point for this collection was the Australian and Asia-Pacific Directories (Clarke 1988, 1991, Gable & Clarke 1994, 1996). It is of the nature of both the early, printed Directories and the self-maintained ISWorld Online Directory since 1995, that both omissions and mis-classifications occur. The proportion of IS Professors who have established and maintained their own entries is extremely disappointing (only 30/69!). A (D) indicates that the person had an entry in the Directory in March 2007 and a (NO) means there was no entry.

Where a number in square brackets is provided after the name, it indicates the sequence in which the appointments were made (1974-1992 only - which appears to cover 'the first 11'). The years shown are only those during which the person is known to have held a Chair - it is a list of Professors, not an attempt to show each person's full career.

This Appendix includes such corrections and updates as have been communicated to me. Please advise the author of errors and omissions. I regret any slight or embarrassment - but the means to correct the record is at your fingertips.

The first list below is by institution, with current Chairs underlined; and the second list is by surname. The current count appears to be 52 Professors in 28 institutions. A total of 69 individuals have been identified as having held Chairs, in 31 of the c. 42 institutions.
