New evidence synthesis course for librarians available to learners everywhere

  • 1.  New evidence synthesis course for librarians available to learners everywhere

    Posted yesterday
    I'm reaching out to share information about a new online course, "Evidence Synthesis for Librarians and Information Specialists." This free, open, self-paced course guides learners through the evidence synthesis process - from an introduction to review types through writing a methods section for publication, with an emphasis on developing and using systematic search strategies.

    The course was created by the Evidence Synthesis Institute (ESI), a partnership between the University of Minnesota Libraries, Cornell University Libraries, and Carnegie Mellon University Libraries. Read the full news release to learn more about the course and ESI.
