Order a workshop - Region Norrbotten
Does your work group need to learn more about evidence-based information retrieval, databases, or search techniques? Order a workshop! A librarian from the University Library will come to your workplace. During the session, participants work hands-on with exercises tailored to the group’s needs.
Workshop: The Medical E-Library (45 min)
We will introduce the Medical E-Library and demonstrate how to borrow books and e-books, request interlibrary loans and search for articles and journals using the Library Search Tool. Participants will also have the opportunity to create a library account and a BrowZine account.
Workshop: Medical databases (90 min)
Participants will learn about search strategies, search techniques and how to use controlled subject headings such as Swedish MeSH. We will also demonstrate advanced searching in databases such as PubMed, CINAHL and PsycInfo. During the workshop, participants will practise defining keywords and conducting advanced searches in different databases.
Workshop: Evidence-based information search (90 min)
The session introduces evidence-based information retrieval and demonstrates how to formulate a search query using PICO. It also shows how to search for evidence-based material in SBU and the Cochrane Library. Participants will practise applying PICO and conducting evidence-based searches in various databases.
Workshop: Tutorial (30-120 min)
When medical students or employees of Region Norrbotten are engaged in research or other projects, a librarian can provide support and guidance on databases, information searching, reference management and related areas.
Workshop: RefWorks (60 min)
During this session we will introduce the reference management system RefWorks and demonstrate how to import references from databases and select citation styles. Participants will create a RefWorks account and practise using the program.
Workshop: Subject-specific content (30-90 min)
You decide the content. For example, we can review databases of your choice, demonstrate how a systematic literature review is conducted in practice, or explore search strategies and filtering options in different databases.
