We are happy to meet with you and discuss your research needs. In order to ensure the highest level of service and quality in the context of reviews, support is offered in tiers.
Librarians can usually extensively work on a limited number of reviews at a time, and may not be immediately available to consult with you at the tier you wish.
Please do reach out to us; even if we are at capacity, we will let you know as soon as the next available librarian can assist you.
If you would like a consultation on finding and evaluating sources for a research proposal or sources for the literature review section or similar of your primary study, please email us. We will be happy to help.
The table below applies to stand-alone reviews/formal evidence synthesis projects.
