CEC session Topics: Evidence-Based Practice Keywords: Bibliographic Databases; Review Literature as Topic; Information Storage and Retrieval; Controlled Vocabulary Improving efficiency and confidence in systematic searching through an innovative way of searching bibliographic databases Erasmus MC, Netherlands, The The course is a hands-on session around searching the medical literature for librarian-mediated searches. In the course examples will be used from the practice of the teachers as well as research questions from the clients of the participants. Before the workshop the participants will be asked to prepare some exercises that will be discussed during the workshop, and will be used to adapt the level of the workshop to the level of knowledge of the participants. The homework includes analyzing a research question, creating an exhaustive search strategy on a given research question and finding search terms on a certain topic. Topics to be discussed during the workshop:
Participants can each work in their own database that they have access to. The teachers are familiar with Embase.com, Embase and Medline via Ovid, Medline via EBSCOhost or ProQuest and PubMed and will teach the translation between these databases and interfaces as well as the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Scopus and Google Scholar. Learning Outcomes : Participants can analyze research questions to identify important elements for a search; Participants can apply the method to find search terms relevant to a research question; Participants can create a basic search strategy in their database of choice using the new method and can apply the optimization method to find extra relevant terms; Participants can apply macros in MS Word to translate search strategies between databases and interfaces and understand how they can adapt the macros to suit their own databases; Participants can evaluate the quality of their own searches and that of others. Target audience : Participants who have some experience in searching in different medical databases, who are familiar with operators and thesaurus terms and who want to learn a stepwise method to improve the process and results of searching in multiple databases. Level : Advanced Preparation for the session: Yes Biography and Bibliography
Wichor Bramer and his colleagues are information specialist at Erasmus MC in Rotterdam. They have developed a method to create high quality systematic searches in a fast standardized way. They have published about the topic in several scientific journal articles. Wichor has written a PhD thesis on the topic that is expected to be defended in summer 2019. |

Workshop session Topics: Roadmap of our Profession Keywords: software and data skills, data literacy, professional development Library Carpentry and medical libraries: How to acquire software and data skills as information professionals? 1Augsburg University Library, Germany; 2Göttingen State and University Library; 3ZB MED – Information Centre for Life Sciences, Germany Library Carpentry (https://librarycarpentry.org) is a community driven software and data skills training to help librarians develop skills around coding and data analysis. In this workshop, we will introduce Library Carpentry as well as the pedagogical approach taken by The Carpentries (Software Carpentry and Data Carpentry, https://carpentries.org), and discuss with participants how this concept can be applied to help train information professionals in medical libraries. Regarding the "Roadmap of our profession", the overall aim of the workshop is to discuss the importance of software and data skills that go beyond typical office programs and that help to increase efficiency and reproducibility in the daily work. The second aim is to introduce Library Carpentry as one approach how these skills can be acquired. We will present different ways to get involved, e.g. by becoming a Carpentries helper or instructor, by contributing to the ongoing lesson development, or by organising a Library Carpentry workshop at one's home institution. The discussion will be guided by three themes:
Learning outcomes : Participants will : understand the teaching philosophy and organisation of Library Carpentry and The Carpentries; be able to determine which aspects of Library Carpentry might be useful to them to develop and foster the uptake of software and data skills at their home institution; have all the information at hand to be able to organise a Library Carpentry event at their institution. Type of interactivity : We will start with a brief introduction (10 min) to the Carpentries organisation, their pedagogical concept and the lessons currently developed for Library Carpentry. We will then have a Knowledge/World Café discussion session of 3 x 15 min. There will be three topics which are given above, so that every participant will have the chance to attend every table. Each table will be chaired by one of the workshop presenters, who will - together with participants - collect discussion results on a whiteboard or flipboard. The last 10-15 min will be spent for a final discussion, in which we will collect the main ideas from each table and answer any remaining questions. Level : Introductory Target audience : The workshop is targeted at information professionals with an interest in which software and data skills medical librarians and other health information professionals need and how Library Carpentry might be a means of acquiring these skills. Preparation for the session : Yes. For discussion theme 2 (see Description above), please read through the overview page of one of our lessons (on Software-Carpentry.org/lessons or DataCarpentry.org/lessons click the “Site” icon, or on LibraryCarpentry.org click “Lessons”, then one of them, and then “View lesson”).

Workshop session Topics: Roadmap of our Profession Keywords: Leadership development, Management; Knowledge Mobilization; Mentoring; Strategic Planning Developing new leaders: Learn from the Canadian experience based upon a unique leadership institute presented by the Canadian Health Libraries Association (2 x 75 min) 1St. Michael's Hospital, Canada; 2Canadian Health Libraries Association The Canadian Health Libraries Association /Association des bibliothèques de la santé du Canada (CHLA/ABSC) recently planned and launched its first ever leadership institute. The Leadership Institute is designed for health science librarians who want to develop strategic approaches to mobilizing knowledge and enabling informed decision-making at senior levels within their organizations. The goal is to build the capacity of participants to develop an approach to leadership that integrates five major components of leadership development (Understanding of self; Understanding of Context; Organizational analysis/Systems Thinking; Relationships for multi-directional influence and Change management ) while also engaging with current and emerging topics challenging health librarians such as artificial intelligence, text mining, personalized medicine, technological integration, open access, open science, metrics, etc. This workshop will provide an opportunity for you to learn about the CHLA/ABSC initiative and what we learned from it, but also to engage in conversations about some of these themes and topics. The workshop will enable participants to reflect on their own leadership practices and share their thoughts and experiences, as we collectively grapple with some of the challenging questions that arose during the Institute such as:
Learning outcomes : Participants will gain an increased understanding of the complexities of leadership in the changing health information services landscape. They will be able to articulate the five major components of the leadership program developed and delivered by the CHLA/ABSC Leadership Institute. They will have experienced an opportunity to critically analyze how potential leaders in the Canadian context have approached some of the more challenging leadership challenges facing our profession, and to express how they understand these issues from their own perspective and location. Participants will be able to apply a health library oriented framework for leadership in the contexts in which they work. Type of interactivity : This workshop will integrate 2 or more interactive methods such as small group discussions; pyramid discussions and/or dotmocracy. While the final format may vary, it is likely that the workshop will include:

Workshop session Topics: Evidence-Based Practice Keywords: rapid reviews, systematic literature searching Same quality, less time? Search methods for rapid reviews (2 x 75 min) 1Danube University Krems, Austria; 2Cardiff University, UK; 3Independent information specialist, Canada; 4EPPI-Centre, University College London, UK To meet the time-sensitive needs of decision makers, rapid reviews have become a pragmatic alternative to systematic reviews (SRs). They are accelerated knowledge syntheses that provide results in a shorter timeframe (within a few days to a few months) through streamlining certain methodological aspects of SRs, including the literature search. Rapid review searches might adjust traditional SR search processes, e.g., by reducing the number of resources searched, omitting grey literature searches, limiting searches by date, language or publication type, or limiting full-text acquisition to resources immediately available. Other possibilities include utilising existing systematic reviews, or focussing on traditionally “supplementary” approaches such as forward-, backward- or related-citation searching. However, while there are many possible ways of streamlining the search process, there is little practical guidance on acceptable methods. Since the methodology of rapid reviewing is still evolving, we can provide no definitive best practice. Rather, the goal of this workshop to provide a basis for discussion and knowledge exchange. The objectives are:
The workshop will have a three-part structure:
Learning outcomes : By the end of the workshop, participants should be able to: Describe how a systematic review differs from a rapid review; Understand different rapid review search approaches and apply these to various type of questions; Analyze necessary components that maybe shortened in a rapid review search; Appraise the advantages and disadvantages of a specific search approach for a particular topic; Consider the steps needed towards methodological standards for rapid review searching.. Type of interactivity : There will be a mixture of presentations, discussion and practical activity. Interactive elements include a practical exercise in small groups (planning a rapid review search), and a Knowledge Café-type discussion of issues related to rapid review searching. Level : Intermediate Target audience : Librarians and information specialists who are familiar with systematic literature searching and interested in rapid review methods. Preparation for the session : No Biography and Bibliography

Workshop session Topics: Evidence-Based Practice Keywords: Literature searching, Search strategy library, Collaboration Search strategy library: testing and evaluating a resource for sharing literature searches and blocks National Guideline Centre, Royal College of Physicians, United Kingdom In daily work, searchers research to find quality strategies that have been used for producing reviews, guidelines, or reports and these are utilised or adapted. This saves time creating strategies from scratch. Gerdien B. de Jonge, Regina Küfner Lein and Marli van Amsterdam explored Sharing literature search blocks in the Journal of EAHIL, 2015 11(3): 11-14 and further at a workshop EAHIL 2015 and presentation EAHIL 2016. Conclusions were that all participants want to share more searches in a better way. According to the common knowledge of workshop participants, there is no single site which summarises or links to available search block sites, nor an overall web site or database combining all these search block strategies. The aim of this search strategy library was to become an overall site with best practice as outlined in the above EAHIL article. This library has the following features: an online form to add search details this contains fields for:
Entries/content can be searched via keywords or selected field content and access is controlled via permissions This workshop will be an opportunity to understand the formation of the Search Strategy Library. To test ease of use and effectiveness for finding strategies and adding own strategies (which participants can bring to the workshop). We will discuss its usability, platform for sharing and future potential. At the end of the workshop attendees will be asked to fill out an evaluation/survey form to assess the library and this will be collated and analysed. Learning outcomes : Interactive hands on session to use, test and evaluate this resource. To assess whether it is a practical easy to use quality tool that enables sharing and collaboration. Is this a resource that fills a gap and that will be of benefit to information specialists and librarians in searching. Type of interactivity : Presentation and group work to use and test library. PC/laptops/tablet and internet access required. If bringing own laptop/tablet or have access to a PC, participants can use a test log in to add search strategies or search for strategies for any search past, current or forthcoming. Bringing a strategy is not a prerequisite - hence the yes/no regarding preparation beforehand as indicated below. Level : Intermediate Target audience : Information specialists and librarians experienced in systematic literature searches in different databases. Preparation for the session : Yes/No Biography and Bibliography

Workshop session Topics: Ecology of Scholarly Communications Keywords: Predatory Publishing, Open Access Predatory Publishing - how to detect questionable journals? ZB MED - Information Centre for Life Sciences, Germany Many open access journals are funded by article content that will be covered. , processing charges (APCs), also known as publication fees. A small number of these journals provide little or no editorial or publishing services in return for the money they charge. These kinds of business practices are often referred to as "predatory publishing". At the beginning "predatory publishing" was considered as a topic only relevant for library departments providing open access services. Soon it became clear that the issue also affects other library departments such as acquisition as well. How can libraries prevent researchers from publishing in such journals and how to deal with suspicious journals with regard to the library's catalogue are two key questions. In order to identify questionable journals, a list of criteria is needed, in addition to (or even as a substitute) to black lists (e.g. Beall's list) and white lists (e.g. Directory of Open Access Journals) which both promise to provide quick orientation but can be considered as problematic as well. The aim of the workshop is to discuss how such a list of criteria can look like. Which criteria can be applied? Are there "hard" and "soft" criteria? This list can either be used to raise awareness within the researcher's community but can also provide orientation whether to index journals in question. Learning outcomes :
Type of interactivity : Discussion of criteria that can be used to identify "predatory journals" using the "pin board technique": suggestions for criteria will be written on cards which are attached to a pin board (or something similar). After a "collection phase" cards/criteria will be rearranged to a list of "hard" and "soft" criteria. Method of documentation: photo protocol. Level : Intermediate Target audience : All colleagues who are affected by the topic are at least interested. Preparation for the session : No Biography and Bibliography
