Summary: | Many research techniques are well-accepted within the Information Systems (IS) discipline. From time to time, however, a researcher investigates a question that requires a novel approach. It is then incumbent on the researcher to justify that approach. The IS discipline has accumulated a large corpus of published works.

This article discusses the challenges that have confronted that undertaking.
