OHIO Libraries Demystifying Systematic Reviews: A Crash Course to Evidence Synthesis Projects

Have a team or department who would like a crash course on systematic reviews? Consider requesting this course.

There are many kinds of reviews, from narrative to systematic. The method or type you choose depends on your question and your resources. Did you know that, on average, it can take around 400 hours of work to complete a systematic review and get it published? This session will explore the different types of reviews, the tools and platforms that can be used to manage such a project, and highlight best practices and guidelines to ensure a successful project. We will use the Libraries’ Evidence Synthesis Methods Guide during this session.  

Learning goals: Attendees will become familiar with various evidence synthesis approaches and be able to identify different types of reviews. They will understand the guidelines and resources needed to perform a high-level review (such as a systematic review or scoping review). Additionally, attendees will discover various platforms and tools available for conducting an in-depth evidence synthesis project.  

Duration: 75+ minutes

Mode: In-person, online, or hybrid session / presentation
