Grad Cafe: Facilitating Literature Review - Covidence

Grad Cafe: Facilitating Literature Review - Covidence In-Person / Online

The Grad Cafe series through the Grad Center, in collaboration with other campus partners, features resources and tips that will help you successfully navigate your academic experiences at Penn. Campus partners share best practices to benefit all graduate and professional students. Healthy snacks, coffee, and tea are provided. We encourage you to BYOM (Bring Your Own Mug)! Please note that sessions are held in Van Pelt Library, not the Grad Center. Our event begins promptly at 11:00am so please arrive early to find your snack and seat. A Penn graduate ID is required for entry.

This presentation will provide an introduction and brief demonstration of Covidence, a web-based software platform that supports the process of conducting literature reviews.

This workshop is part of a series hosted by the Libraries in collaboration with the Grad Center at Penn. Each workshop focuses on an element of the research or publishing process. During the semester, take part in in-person workshops covering citation management, impact metrics, promoting your work, selecting the right publishing venue, fair use, and more.  See the full suite of workshops to support you as you make progress toward your publishing goals. Check back to keep track of new workshops being added.
