Hi! I skimmed the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) Handbook recently and thought I'd share this--
If any of you need language that supports librarians as an important part of education systematic reviews, the WWC (from the U.S. Department of Education) has the following in Appendix B of their Procedures Handbook Version 4.1:
"Review teams should employ research librarians to help design the search strategy."
and
"Other members of the review team include WWC-certified reviewers and review coordinators...Coordinators support the team leaders, reviewers, and other review team members in managing the various aspects of the reviews. For example, coordinators work with library staff in overseeing the literature search process, screening the literature, organizing and maintaining communication, tracking the review process, overseeing review team staffing, and managing the production process."
