Open Business Source Premier from the Databases A-Z on the Library website (there is also a link to this from the A-Z entry for Informs). 

You have two options:

  1. Paste this search string (created by the business librarian at Brunel) into the top search box:
    JN "Decision Analysis" OR JN "Information Systems Research" OR JN "INFORMS Journal on Applied Analytics" OR JN "INFORMS Journal on Computing" OR JN "INFORMS Journal on Data Science" OR JN "INFORMS Journal on Optimization" OR JN "INFORMS Transactions on Education" OR JN "Management Science" OR JN "Manufacturing & Service Operations Management (M&SOM)" OR JN "Marketing Science" OR JN "Mathematics of Operations Research" OR JN "Operations Research" OR JN "Organization Science" OR JN "Service Science" OR JN "Stochastic Systems" OR JN "Strategy Science" OR JN "Transportation Science" 
    Then put your keywords into the other boxes. All results will be articles published in these Informs journals.
  2. Select Publications authority from the Research tools menu at the left of the page.
    Paste Informs journal titles (found on the Informs website) into the search box under Publications. You can add all journals, or select the journals you need (you can do this with journals from other publishers too)
    Check and tick the journal title that appears, and press Add to search
    Each journal will be listed in a separate box, connected with AND. Change the drop-down menu between each box from AND to OR.
    Depending on how many journals you have added, you may be able to select Add row underneath all the search boxes. Then put your keywords into the added row(s). If this is not possible, you can press Search and add keywords to the search box that appears at the top of the results page (or copy the search string from the top of the results paste, and paste it into the first box in a new search).
