Updated Literature Search Protocols for Researchers

 

The Literature Search Process: a guidance for NHS Researchers is a checklist of suggested search techniques and sources of healthcare evidence, emerging research and grey literature to support healthcare researchers undertaking in depth literature searches.

 

The protocols have just been updated to include newer information sources  such as Epistemonikos and an expanded list of subject specific resources which signposts to some of the lesser known healthcare databases (Appendix 2).
