Searching for Studies: basics of a systematic search

Searching for Studies: basics of a systematic search Online

This free webinar will get you started on developing search methods for a review of any kind, starting with database selection, the use of controlled vocabulary terms and keywords, along with database syntax for truncation and proximity searching. It will cover how to translate a search into a second database.

We will deconstruct a published search strategy to show you how to build each component of your question, using two of the most searched databases: MEDLINE (Ovid) and CINAHL (Ebscohost).

Speakers Include:

  • Edoardo Aromataris, BSc (Hons), PhD, Director of Synthesis Science at JBI
  • Amanda Ross-White, MLIS, AHIP, Head of the Bracken Health Sciences Library at Queen’s University and President of the Canadian Health Libraries Association
