  text: Understanding a new literature corpus can be a grueling experience for junior
    scholars. Nevertheless, corresponding guidelines have not been updated for decades.
    We contend that the traditional strategy of skimming all papers and reading selected
    papers afterwards needs to be revised. Therefore, we design a new strategy that
    guides the overall exploratory process by prioritizing influential papers for
    initial reading, followed by skimming the remaining papers. Consistent with schemata
    theory, starting with in-depth reading allows readers to acquire more substantial
    prior content schemata, which are representa-tive for the literature corpus and
    useful in the following skimming process. To this end, we develop a prototype
    that identifies the influential papers from a set of PDFs, which is illustrated
    in a case study in the IT business value domain. With the new strategy, we envision
    a more efficient process of exploring unknown literature corpora.
