Where to publish? Navigating the publishing landscape

“Publish or perish” is an adage that many of us working in academia will sadly be all too familiar with. However, working out how best to begin working toward publication is not a straightforward task. Amongst a complex and changing landscape of journal publishing, where trusted journal and so-called 'predatory journals' are competing for our attention, working out where to publish, and how to plan your publication strategy with your own career goals in mind can be daunting. Focusing on journal articles as a research output, this informative session led by Dr Paul Cannon (MVLS College Librarian) will discuss some of the factors that may influence a publication strategy and illustrate research impact. The session will demonstrate a range of tools that researchers can use to identify suitable outlets for their research, from journal matching services, to utilising bibliometric and altmetric data to assess research outlets and demonstrate research impact.

Searching and reporting for systematic reviews: Class 3

This third class concerns search methods for "other sources" of information. This class will cover the importance of searching clinical trial registers to reduce bias, searching and browsing grey literature sources, and reference and citation analysis. We will also cover search automation tools and how to report a search using PRISMA-S.

Searching and reporting for systematic reviews: Class 2

This second class focusses on search methods. We will be looking at translating a question formulation framework into a workable search using text words and subject headings. We will develop these into a structured search using fields and utilise advanced search syntax to maximise the sensitivity of a search. Lastly, we will cover the search translation process, and discuss methods to save and export search histories to report search methods.

Searching and reporting for systematic reviews: Class 1

[Recording to follow] This first class focusses on the initial stages of a systematic review. We will be looking at how research questions influence a search, question formulation frameworks, and what elements of a framework are appropriate to a search and what elements are better left to a manual sift against your inclusion and exclusion criteria. These factors will influence your protocol development and set us up for class 2.

Keeping up with published literature

This guide suggests several methods to help keep up-to-date with published literature. The methods listed and the associated pros and cons of each method are not exhaustive, are subjective, and therefore intended to be illustrative only. Reading is a highly personal activity and you are encouraged to try various tools and techniques to suit your desired reading experience.

The University of Glasgow guide to search strategies for systematic reviews in medical, veterinary and life sciences

This guide is intended to provide an overview of some of the methodological and practical considerations required when undertaking the search component of a systematic review. The guide signposts to resources to aid the process of undertaking a systematic review and enhance a review’s quality and reporting standards. The guide should, therefore, not be seen as extensive nor a handbook. This resource is not necessarily intended to be read in a linear fashion. As an example, if your search skills require development then you may wish to review the resources in the ‘Developing a search strategy’ section prior to undertaking a scoping search.

Searching library databases

This guide provides information on searching key library databases in Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences. The searches performed in the videos take you beyond simple textword (keyword) searching and introduce a level of rigour with the addition of subject headings to a search. The processes illustrated are relevant to all types of literature review, although systematic-type searches will need to be a lot more exhaustive in the use of synonyms, acronyms and additionally searching and browsing for relevant subject headings. Refer to the database help text for detailed search guidance for each database.
