Background: The new PRISMA 2020 updated was published in March 2021. The new guideline advances the methods of systematic reviews with more detailed reporting recommendations including a revised and expanded 27-item checklist, a new abstract checklist, and a revised flowchart.
Description: This presentation will include examples of methods and workflows created to aim for better adherence to PRISMA 2020 and improve the quality of systematic reviews. This presentation will also discuss the challenges and barriers that one librarian has experienced when trying to implement PRISMA 2020 in her research teams, in addition, to the successes and lessons learned along the way.
Conclusion: PRISMA 2020 when followed will produce more transparent and reproducible reviews. Librarians can help facilitate the adherence to the new recommendations by making small practice changes.
