dc.description.abstractThis study examines the evolving role of librarians within evidence synthesis (ES) research at a mid-sized university after the introduction of a tiered service model. We identified all ES published by our institution and used content analysis to categorize the type of evidence synthesis (e.g., systematic reviews, scoping reviews), the disciplines represented (e.g., nursing, psychology), and the specific ways librarian contributions were credited or acknowledged (e.g., co-authorship, mentioned by name in the search methods). Findings highlight a significant increase in librarian co-authorship since the introduction of our tiered model in 2017, reflecting a growing recognition of librarian expertise in evidence synthesis methodologies and the possible impact of our tiered model. Additionally, our research reveals overall trends in output and disciplines publishing ES research. This presentation is valuable for librarians and administrators planning their own ES research service and those interested in learning how a tiered model can result in increased acknowledgement and co-authorship for librarians involved in evidence synthesis research. Slides were presented as part of the Library Evidence Synthesis Services Symposium (LESSS) which occurred June 24-27, 2024.
