Systemaattinen tiedonhaku: Library's Services for Systematic Information Retrieval

Systematic Information Retrieval

An important aspect of a systematic review or scoping review is an exhaustive, planned and documented literature search. The search should be created in such a way that it retrieves as many relevant publications as possible, without increasing the search result set to such an extent that it is no longer possible to sift through the search result. 

There are many guidelines available on how to conduct a systematic information search. In this site you'll find a selection of the guides and information on the support services that Helsinki University Library offers to the staff and students of University of Helsinki and the University Hospital.
