Subject: Identifying the Evidence for Systematic Reviews
A one-day course for information specialists and librarians on supporting systematic reviews in health and social care will be held at the Centre for Reviews & Dissemination, University of York.
Wednesday 20th April 2016, 9.15 am – 4 pm
The course will be led by:
• Carol Lefebvre, Co-Convenor of the Cochrane Information Retrieval Methods Group
• Melissa Harden, Information Specialist at Centre for Reviews & Dissemination
• Kath Wright, Information Services Manager at the Centre for Reviews & Dissemination
The day is a mixture of presentations, practical exercises and quizzes, with plenty of time for questions and discussion.
By the end of the day participants will know about:
• systematic review methods
• planning an appropriate search strategy
• locating and using methodological search filters
• documenting the search process
• managing references using bibliographic software
• the role of the information professional in the systematic review team
Pre-requisites for course attendance:
• experience of bibliographic database searching
• familiarity with MeSH indexing, Boolean operators, truncation and other basic search tools and techniques
The course does not include a “hands on” database searching session so prior knowledge or experience in these areas is essential to get the most from the day.
The cost for the course is the same as 2015
£160 for public sector & non-profit organisations.
£540 (incl. VAT) for private & commercial companies.
Price includes lunch, refreshments and a course pack.
A charge of £20 will be payable for cancellations up to 18th March 2016.
Cancellations after 18th March 2016 will not be refunded.
In the unlikely event that, due to unforeseen circumstances, any of the workshops have to be cancelled by the University of York, our liability is limited to a refund of paid workshop fees only. We recommend that delegates have adequate insurance cover to claim any travel or personal expenses.
