Save the date for Systematic Review Success: An Introductory Workshop for Librarians & Information Professionals

  • 1.  Save the date for Systematic Review Success: An Introductory Workshop for Librarians & Information Professionals

    Posted 16 days ago

    Dear Colleagues,

    You are invited to attend the IFLA Social Sciences Libraries' webinar "Systematic Review Success: An Introductory Workshop for Librarians & Information Professionals" which is co-sponsored by LRRT and scheduled on June 5, Tuesday, 10 am-11:30 am EST. Please check your time zone.

    Description: Did you know that more and more social sciences librarians are part of research teams conducting evidence synthesis work? A systematic review, a type of evidence synthesis, is a summary of the literature that uses explicit and reproducible methods to systematically search, critically appraise, and synthesize on a specific issue. Librarians and researchers are collaborating frequently on systematic reviews. Hosted by the IFLA Social Sciences Libraries Standing Committee, join us for an introduction to the systematic review process and hear from experts who have engaged in and have published systematic reviews. This free webinar will demystify the systematic review process.

     

    Bring your questions and all are welcome to attend.

    Please share this webinar widely!
