Summary of Findings | From 19 included Campbell systematic reviews with protocols published between October 2014 to January 2019. Over half of the reviews (n=12, 63 %) acknowledged a librarian in regard to searching for studies. Librarians or information specialists were listed as an author on five (26 %) reviews and were consulted for assistance with the search strategy or retrieving articles on seven (37 %) reviews. There was a statistically significant difference on the average of those protocols and reviews that met the MECCIR criteria without a librarian presence and those with a librarian presence. The authors highlight that being published in Campbell Systematic Reviews does not necessarily mean full compliance with Campbell's standards |
