    Hello Everyone.

    Happy 2023! To start us off this semester, we will host a journal club session on Friday, February 3rd at 10 am Pacific Time (1 pm Eastern Time). 

    Amy Riegelman from University of Minnesota Libraries will facilitate a discussion about the following article: Lee, M. S., Hughes, A., Lockmiller, C., Day, A., Brown, M., & Jenson, R. (2022). Working Together: How Academic Librarians Can Help Researchers Prepare for a Grey Literature Search for Systematic Reviews Involving Minoritized Populations. The Journal of Academic Librarianship, 102626. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.acalib.2022.102626
    *We have also received a request to discuss/demo the new proximity searching operator on PubMed. If you have tested or used this feature and are willing to do a 5-7 minute demo on how it works (as part of the journal club event mentioned above), please reach out to me (zahrapremji@uvic.ca) to express your interest.
