Developing your search skills so you can search the literature effectively is a critical part of any literature review.

Attend this introductory workshop to learn how to:

• map out a comprehensive search strategy
• identify relevant databases to search
• apply your search strategy to a multidisciplinary database taking advantage of key features
• review and improve your search using valuable techniques

Please note: if you are undertaking a systematic or scoping review you may find that the EDGE sessions in the 'Systematic review' series ('Finding the evidence', 'Finding grey literature' and 'Manage your results') better meet your needs.

Recommend where possible to have access to two screens during this session.
