Using EndNote for Librarian-Mediated Systematic Review Searches

If you want to work on a systematic review team, you’ll want to know how to manage citations with EndNote, one of the most popular citation management tools used on reviews.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to import references using adapted import filters, deduplicate results, track references, and more. You’ll also learn how to adapt EndNote to work with the methods Wichor teaches in his sold-out Instructor-Led and annual meeting courses.

If you don’t have EndNote, it’s easy to sign up for a free 30-day trial. Sign up a week or so before the webinar to get familiar with EndNote and be ready for the advanced methods exercises discussed during the webinar.

This course is an approved elective for Level I of the Systematic Review Services Specialization.
