Piecing Together Systematic Reviews: Phase 1 - Proposal
This session will cover the first phase of the PIECCESS review cycle, the Proposal phase of conducting a systematic review. The five-part series will introduce the review cycle framework, PIECCESS, as described in the book by Foster and Jewell (2022) Piecing Together Systematic Reviews and Other Evidence Syntheses. Throughout the phases, the potential roles for librarians, health care professionals and others interested in the process of systematic review will be discussed as well as categories of client, such as those who read reviews as compared to those who conduct reviews.
