Barriers to Generating a Search Librarians Imposter syndrome FOMA Bottom line nothing is perfect, but documenting your search is the key
Barriers to Generating a Search Researchers There is more to life than PubMed There is more to life than published journal articles Publication bias is not just a river in Egypt
Dynasty EMBASE
Embase Not all institutions subscribe Embase is not entirely necessary for all systematic reviews (did the world just end?) NML has pay-go access to Embase 2 research teams have used it Another group used the international user s access
