A librarian on the Med-Lib-L discussion group wanted guidance regarding
finding evidence based medicine sources in databases. My response focused
on the TRIP database and cited evidence on the amount of information this
database provides on three specific topics. Hey, I wanted this post to be
evidence based too!!! <g> Since the database is named trip, I included
the topic of tourism as well with a huge search result for that subject
field.

Please consider in this regard using the Trip Database, which has little to do
with tourism and much to do with evidence based medicine and the basic database
can be used at no cost to the searcher.
https://www.tripdatabase.com/
Given the lead poisoning crisis in Flint, Michigan, for example, having
evidence based articles on lead poisoning may be very useful as background
resources for dealing with effected adults and children in Flint.
962 results for ""lead poisoning"", by quality
If one subscribes to the premium version one gets more content.
41 Systematic Reviews
693 Full Text Articles
68 Clinical Trials
It would seem that there is much misinformation about vaccines and vaccination
including an ongoing anti-vaxxers movement.
A search of vaccination OR vaccine OR vaccines in the Trip Database
Finds
70,207 results for "vaccination OR vaccine OR vaccines", by quality
The Premium Subscription Fee Based Version adds
1,354 Systematic Reviews
40,052 Full Text Articles
10,272 Systematic Reviews
One must beware of subscribing to this database during the Autumn season,
however, as one does not want to Trip and Fall.
Speaking of Flint, Michigan, some may find the news reports in this work in
progress to be useful.
MAN MADE DISASTER Lead Poisoning of Flint Michigan Water

and there is also a research guide on vaccination
VACCINES : SOCIAL WORK GUIDES: Vaccines and Vaccination
http://guides.temple.edu/vaccines
If one is looking for data on these or other topics, my Statistics Research
Guide
http://guides.temple.edu/statistics-sources
has this section
Database Search Results for Statistical and Demographic Data FROM United States
Government Agencies
http://guides.temple.edu/statistics-sources/gov-stats
Thus far there is coverage of over 40 United States Government Agencies.
There are about 19 searches for each agency of the agency name and statistics
terms. On the left side of these searches one can add to these searches the
topic one is seeking to learn about and use this as a tool to find both
statistical sources from the agencies selected of data on that topic as well as
source citations to research using data from that agency about the topic one is
researching.
This statistics database tool may therefore be quite useful in the creation of
evidence based content on research topics being pursued by librarians and their
clients.
By the way, the TRIP Database does have substantial content on tourism as well,
just thought I would check.
A search of "tourism OR tourist OR tourists OR hospitality OR "event
management"", by quality FINDS:
562,551 results
and the fee based version adds
33,901 Systematic Reviews
236,160 Full Text Articles
83,108 Clinical Trials
The free content includes titles like these:

Searching the phrase "evidence based" in search strategies used in other
databases may lead to at least some, perhaps many discussions of evidence based
in those databases rather than discussions of the topic one seeks evidence
based content about, adding to the importance of the Trip database. It can be
very hard to find lists of sources that involve evidence based research on
specific topics elsewhere.
