We've had a paper published in the @HILJnl Teaching & Learning in Action section on our information specialist development pathway. It's about training but also putting PRESS into practice for peer review https://t.co/P2qwsYr6x8

Today's pro tip for searching biomedical & health sciences databases: use published search hedges to build your own search strategy (i.e. term-harvesting). Here's a great source: https://t.co/KWgBlsSAvO

Updated generic search filters for finding studies of adverse drug effects in Ovid medline and Embase may retrieve up to 90% of relevant studies https://t.co/BP5c9QQe5x

[SRLibrarianProblems 🦇 @SRLibProblems]

@CADTH_ACMTS I appreciate the Ovid jumpstart links that are provided with the Medline filters. I used one last night and did not have to copy & paste 36 lines. Just add in the ezproxy fragment for my institution and it worked! 🤩

Staff from YHEC took on the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge for @OscarsCharity Paediatric Brain Tumour Charity. They contended with wind and water, ascended over 5,000 feet, covered almost 25 miles and raised over £1000! There's still time to donate: https://t.co/vwGgrkkHrL

Slides from #EAHIL2022 keynote on Researching Ourselves: A Critical Role for Librarians are on OSF: https://t.co/sY1O1rA4jH

[Melissa Rethlefsen @mlrethlefsen]

Not planning to publish this due to heterogeneous data and other significant limitations, but still has some interesting stuff that may be of use in other ways https://t.co/kix8brfDbk

[Melissa Rethlefsen @mlrethlefsen]

A couple of interesting things: AMSTAR 2 makes it way easier to assess search quality than AMSTAR. #medlibs are much stricter (well, better) judges of PRISMA Item 7. The number of articles that say that 100% of information sources were fully reported is just depressing.

[Melissa Rethlefsen @mlrethlefsen]

When librarians are doing methods/reporting quality assessment, we don't use AMSTAR/PRISMA or their variants, but use more nuanced measures. To me, this is a clear demonstration these tools haven't met our needs for search methods/quality assessment

[Melissa Rethlefsen @mlrethlefsen]

Our general results were shared in our poster

[Melissa Rethlefsen @mlrethlefsen]

We looked at whether librarians/info specialists authored the articles, how many sys revs were rated as fulfilling AMSTAR or PRISMA search-related items, etc. Methods in brief here: https://t.co/8J4s8ly3fT

[Paul Levay @levay_paul]

The manuscript of our latest paper on searching for Public Health Guidelines is now available.

We need to use a range of databases and other techniques because we could only find 76% of our includes from MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Library.
