Systematic Review Workshops

While scoping reviews differ from systematic reviews in methodology, how you build a search strategy and conduct your search in Ovid Medline is the same regardless of whether you are doing a scoping review or a systematic review. 

This page includes slides and resources for the 3-part Systematic Review Workshop series that was last offered in Fall 2021 and Winter 2022. It is recommended that you start with Workshop #1: Literature Searching for Knowledge Synthesis (18:46) and watch Workshop #2: Translating the Search Strategy and Workshop #3: Searching for Grey Literature in their entirety.

Note: These workshops were delivered to Ontario Tech graduate students and faculty, but the databases and resources mentioned are also available on the Durham College Library website under the Databases A-Z tab:
