Notice Information

Notice Title

The Cochrane Library and Wiley Online Library

Notice Description

The Cochrane Collaboration (www.cochrane.org) is an international, non-profit organisation that prepares, publishes and disseminates up-to-date systematic reviews (Cochrane Reviews) on the effects of healthcare interventions in order to help people make well-informed decisions. Currently more than 28,000 people (researchers, healthcare professionals of all disciplines, policy makers and members of the public) based in more than 100 countries participate in this non-profit, global initiative, including over 10,000 contributors in the United Kingdom. The Cochrane Library is a collection of six databases, including The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, containing high-quality evidence to inform healthcare decision-making, and a seventh database that provides information about the different entities within the Cochrane Collaboration. The databases within The Cochrane Library provide information and evidence to support decisions taken in health care and inform those receiving care. For example, The Cochrane Library can be searched for a particular topic or disease and will return results containing information on clinical trials, Cochrane Reviews, non-Cochrane systematic reviews, methods studies, technology assessments and economic evaluations related to that topic or disease. In addition the search results will contain all Cochrane entities with an interest in that area, thereby providing a wealth of resources and access to collaborators, mentors, referees and experts.
