Collaborating on Critically Appraised Topic (CAT) groups: librarians, clinicians and researchers integrating research into practice

Abstract

During 2021, the newly appointed Director of   for the Metro North Health Surgical, Treatment and Rehabilitation Service (STARS) approached the Senior Manager, Faculty Services at The University of Queensland (UQ) Library to invite librarians to work on Critically Appraised Topic (CAT) groups. The purpose of the CAT groups is to bring together experts in their field to work on a clinical question. The Library welcomed this opportunity to partner with STARS to contribute to making informed evidence-based decisions.
