Support
Librarians at the Phillip Capozzi, M.D. Library of New York Medical College can assist with planning, conducting, and reporting systematic, scoping, and other types of research reviews.  

We encourage you to make an appointment with a librarian before requesting a Covidence account via the Capozzi Library's institutional license. Additionally, librarians are available to collaborate on review teams. Librarian participation on research teams improves the quality of the literature search, which is integral to systematic, scoping, and similar reviews.
