Abstract

With literature reviews, particularly, protocol-driven ones, becoming more accepted in the domains of operations and supply chain management, eight myths (and a ninth one) that influence authors in their approach have been extracted from submissions to a special issue in the Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management. What to do about these myths, reflected in the comments by reviewers and the guest editors, is at the heart of this paper. Some guidance here complements existing advice found in textbooks and publications in academic journals, whilst the discussion of other points leads to suggestions hardly addressed so far, even though they are essential to getting literature reviews published. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to encourage scholars to reflect on their approaches to literature reviews to increase chances of publication.
