Workshop session Topics: Technology Uptake Keywords: PICO, Metadata, Linked Data, Annotation PICO Search: Unlocking the Cochrane Data Vault Cochrane Cochrane Review Groups have been creating PICO metadata by annotating the inclusion criteria reported in the methods sections of their systematic reviews. In the process of annotating Cochrane systematic reviews we are enriching our content and data by not only using controlled vocabularies (e.g. SNOMED, WHO ATC/DDD) but also adding our own terms that are more commonly used in reviews and study reports. From this work our own Cochrane Vocabulary is evolving to help develop a search tool to be used by different searchers. This metadata is available via the PICOfinder search tool prototype. Cochrane is in the process of determining who the end user will be. The prototype for this tool helps us understand how we can search for our metadata and how it could complement the traditional search on the Cochrane Library. This will be an interactive workshop where participants will be provided with sample searches to test the prototype and give feedback on the PICO search experience. Learning outcomes : Understand if PICO search integrates or could substitute traditional searching for reports of RCTs; Determine if the tool presented is user friendly for all searchers (researchers, information specialists, patients) Type of interactivity : Knowledge Cafe structure which will be in three parts:
Level : Intermediate/Advanced Target audience : Participants with an interest in linked data and using metadata to make evidence based research more easily retrievable. Preparation for the session : Yes Biography and Bibliography
