Search Like a Librarian: Expert Searching Skills

This workshop is intended for those that are seeking expertise in searching beyond the basics. This includes but is not limited to: performing evidence synthesis searches (systematic reviews, scoping reviews, rapid reviews, etc), literature review searches, and other projects requiring a more in-depth search of the literature.  Field codes, subject terms, wildcards and truncation, proximity search, and other advanced concepts will be discussed. This is a hybrid workshop and the librarians will be demonstrating search strategies and offering hands-on experience.

Participants can join this session one of three ways:

• Attend in person at Ginsburg Library (limited to Temple affiliates), or
• Attend online via Zoom, or
• View the recording on their own time (all registrants will receive an email with the video link after this session)
