Librarians are available to provide one-on-one support to help you:

• Select the right databases and design a search strategy
• Learn a reference management tool
• Determine which type of literature review is best suited to your research question
• Conduct a systematic review
• Identify and select an appropriate publication target 

Contact us to schedule a research consultation or get help with a systematic review.

Faculty members, program managers, residency directors, and others may request library instruction and course support focused on the resources and research skills of greatest interest to their students, residents, and other trainees.

Members of the Education & Research Services team are trained in Systematic Review methodology and advanced searching. We are available to assist with various review types, including systematic, scoping, and rapid reviews. Librarians can help with search development as well as training on Covidence, a systematic review tool available to the ISMMS community.
