Special Issue "Pharmacist Services"

-------------------
Dear Colleagues,

We invite you to submit a manuscript to the “Pharmacist Services” Special Issue in the journal Pharmacy—an open access journal with a focus on pharmacy education and practice.

As an example, you may wish to take a look at previous special issues: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/pharmacy/special_issues

If the Special Issue publishes more than 10 papers, the publisher will print a book edition. The book would be made available, in digital format (for free) and paperback copies (ordered via Amazon) on the MDPI platform (http://books.mdpi.com).

For the Special Issue on “Pharmacist Services” we seek a full breadth of manuscripts including, but not limited to the following topics: (1) the history and development of pharmacist services, (2) service settings, (3) service management, (4) service profitability, (5) service recovery, (6) service relationships, (7) service quality, (8) service tailoring, (9), service design and standards, (10) service performance, and (11) service evaluation. We seek manuscripts of all types including: (1) reviews, (2) commentaries, (3) idea papers, (4) case studies, (5) demonstration studies, and (6) research studies.

The overall goal of this Special Issue on “Pharmacist Services” is to give the reader a state-of-the-art synopsis of the pharmacist services domain at this point in time. To accomplish this goal, we seek papers that address the social, psychosocial, political, legal, historic, clinical, and economic factors that are associated with pharmacist services. Papers that translate concepts from other domains into the pharmacist services realm will be instructive to our audience and are welcome for this Special Issue.

Please note that we have framed this special issue using ideas published by renowned experts in the services management and marketing domains including: Teresa Swartz, Dawn Iacobucci, Roland Rust, Richard Oliver, Valerie Zeithaml, and Mary Jo Bitner. We will certainly consider papers that use other frameworks, but wanted to let you know about the foundational context that we will be using as we construct this Special Issue.

Thank you for considering this invitation.
