Abstract
This presentation introduces core concepts of clinical scholarship for urology residents and faculty, with a focus on turning clinical questions into structured literature searches and using HSLIC resources to support small-scale scholarly projects. Key topics include framing answerable clinical questions (e.g., PICOT), navigating core clinical information tools (PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, ClinicalKey, UpToDate, HSLIC LibGuides), applying practical literature search techniques (Boolean operators, truncation, wildcards, proximity operators, subject headings), documenting basic search strategies, accessing full text (LibKey Nomad, proxy authentication, interlibrary loan and document delivery), and an introductory overview of critical appraisal tools and publishing supports available through HSLIC.
