Introduction

Abstract

As is the nature of an interdisciplinary academic journal, this issue of the Interdisciplinary Journal of Signage and Wayfinding again presents a range of scholarly work reflecting IJSW’s disciplinary breadth and the different approaches of scholars to both signage and wayfinding research. The title of this issue, “Wayfinding, Public Art, Contextualization, and Communicating Neighborhood Identities,” conveys a number of important but seemingly disparate research topics that on closer inspection show a surprising degree of overlap.
