  • Health Sciences and Beyond: An Investigation into Canadian Librarian Participation in Systematic Reviews across Disciplines Catherine Boden Susan Bolton Angie Gerrard Foreign Countries Health Sciences Intellectual Disciplines Librarians Library Role Librarian Attitudes Literature Reviews Participation Universities Role Barriers Bibliographies Academic Libraries The aim of this survey was to describe academic librarian roles in systematic reviews (SR) in any discipline, as a follow-up to a previous survey of Canadian academic health sciences librarians. A convenience sample of librarians at Canadian universities who support SRs were invited to complete a survey. Respondents were asked about their roles, training, knowledge, and barriers to providing SR services. Ninety-four librarians responded to the survey. The most common roles were in the literature search; time and training were the most frequently reported barriers. Librarians are supporting reviews in multiple, diverse disciplines, primarily as expert searchers.
