Library webinar: Documenting and reporting the search

Posted: Monday 19 May 2025

In scoping and systematic type reviews, it is important to report the search methods accurately and completely, as this can improve transparency and replicability. Keeping a comprehensive search log and using reporting guidelines makes this easier.  

This webinar is for HDRs, academics and professional staff who are planning or conducting a scoping, systematic or other type of review. It will cover: 

  • Why documenting and reporting the search is important 
  • What to include in a search log 
  • Using guidance from PRISMA-S to report the search methods 

Wednesday May 21st, 12:30-1:30 

Book on the Research Training and Development calendar.
