This 60-minute session will introduce the concepts of searching the healthcare literature to support systematic reviews from initial framing of a question, to demonstrate searching using one example of a framework – PICO - searching both keywords and subject terms for CINAHL and MEDLINE on the EBSCOhost interface.  Part 2 will look at how to process results using bibliographic software and personal folders.

By the end of this session you will be able to:

• Describe key steps in searching in support of systematic reviews
• Plan an appropriate search strategy using the PICO framework
• Locate and use methodological search filters
• Further support for EBSCOhost research databases
