Please note that the clinics are intended specifically to address systematic review related queries. It may be worth considering whether this is the most appropriate route for your enquiry.
Clinic appointments are often in high demand, with some people having to wait several weeks to attend. If you are not planning to do a systematic review, waiting for an appointment slot may not be the best use of your time. Please see our FAQs for information on where to find help with your literature search.
How to book:
Book directly from our Eventbrite page, or by selecting from the dates listed below (please note that booking links from this page may not work on a mobile phone).
Where possible, appointments will remain bookable until 48 hours before the clinic begins, although we will sometimes need to close the booking system earlier.
Virtual clinic appointments are now offered by default, via Teams or Zoom. We will normally circulate individual calendar appointments with joining instructions 1-2 days prior to the clinic.
N.B. We have had some confusion lately over the clinic times displayed on the Eventbrite pages and on the automated emails you will receive from Eventbrite once you have booked, as compared with the times of individual appointments. Please note that the time of your actual appointment will be the time you selected when booking – this will also be shown on your confirmation email as the “ticket type”, e.g.” Session 1: 11:30 – 12:00″. A calendar invite for this time with the meeting link will be sent out 1-2 days before your appointment, so if you are booking well in advance, you may wish to make a note of the time in your calendar yourself in order to avoid any later diary clashes.
Fair usage policy:
- You may book a maximum of 2 appointment slots per clinic: this is in order to allow us to answer as many requests as possible in the allocated time. Please only book a double appointment if you need advice from both a reviewer and an information specialist. We will decline any extra bookings made for the same clinic by or on behalf of the same person. You may book follow-up appointments at future clinics.
- If you make an appointment and later find that you cannot attend, please inform us as soon as possible in order to free up the space for others. Alternatively, you may cancel your appointment on Eventbrite if you have an account. We may bar serial non-attenders from future clinics.
