Strategies for Literature Reviews: Beyond MEDLINE - Translating Search Strategies for Knowledge Syntheses

Are you struggling to start your systematic or scoping review? Want to improve your research process by searching more effectively and efficiently?

Take your research to the next level with a 3-part workshop series, Strategies for Systematic, Scoping, or Other Comprehensive Searches of LiteratureYou are welcome to take one or all three workshops! 
This course may be taken as part of the Graduate Professional Skills Program.

Building on the structured approach shown in Part 1 of the series, in this hands-on workshop students will:

  • Review Medline strategy from Part 1 and prepare it for translation

  • Delve deeper into the advanced features of interfaces and databases which allow for editing and refining a search strategy

  • Translate and execute structured search strategies using different databases, including OVID Embase, and Ebsco CINAHL

  • Prepare database search strategies and compose search methods, such that they can be repeated and to ensure proper reporting

This workshop follows a flipped-classroom model, which means there is pre-class work (30 - 40min) that is required to be completed before joining us online for class. The pre-class work will be available in Quercus.
