Hi all,

Just sharing this information passed along from Sarah Young from the
Carnegie Mellon University.
------

Now accepting applications for the next Evidence Synthesis Institute for
librarians. This will be an opportunity to enhance your database searching
skills and learn about the possibilities for collaborating with researchers
in conducting evidence syntheses across academic areas.

On March 22-25, 2022 the third of 6 Institute of Museum and Library
Services (IMLS)-funded Institutes will occur in a virtual environment.
Applications will be accepted between now and January 7, 2022.  More
information is available at the following webpage. The application e-form
is linked on this page:


*https://z.umn.edu/ESInstitute <https://z.umn.edu/ESInstitute>*

This institute will be fully funded by the IMLS and at no charge for
accepted applicants. The Institute is aimed at library staff supporting
evidence syntheses in topics outside of the health sciences and will cover

   - overview of systematic reviews and similar methodologies
   - guidelines and standards
   - search strategy development
   - software tools
   - quality assessment
   - systematic review services

Applicants should anticipate addressing the following questions in their
application:

   - Why is this training relevant to your current work or career
   development?
   - How will you use specialized evidence synthesis skills in your job?
   - How do you anticipate sharing what you learn at this workshop with
   colleagues, researchers, and/or students?

We are able to accept 50 participants in this Institute. Applications will
be screened and prioritized based on urgency of need, existing knowledge
gap, disciplines supported by applicant, and potential impact of training.

Questions about the Evidence Synthesis Institute can be sent to
sysreview at umn.edu. More information on the IMLS proposal and the
partnership between University of Minnesota, Cornell University, and
Carnegie Mellon University is available at IMLS.gov,  RE-246347-OLS-20
<https://www.imls.gov/grants/awarded/re-246347-ols-20> .

Please share this information with colleagues who may benefit from this
training.
