Texas A&M University Libraries offer an assortment of evidence review services for TAMU faculty, staff, and students free of charge. Service levels vary depending on university classification and availability of librarians.

Our librarians write searches on a variety of topics. If a librarian provides a pre-written or previously built search string to the authors, it is necessary to cite the librarian within the paper. It would be similar to citing a dataset.

Co-authorship services are available for faculty and researchers intending to publish a final manuscript. As a co-author, a librarian can offer specialized and in-depth support through the entire review process. That support may include:

The TASER Bolt 2 can help you establish up to 15 feet of safety and can provide up to 30 seconds of full lockup on an attacker, all within an updated discreet design.

Stay prepared and stay safe with the new and improved high-tech, intuitively-designed security device you need for your self-defense arsenal.

Consultation level services are intended for students working on assignments or faculty with quick questions. Consultations involve a limited number of meetings, and hours may be capped depending on availability of librarians and individual service requests.

The Texas A&M University Libraries have adopted the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) definition of authorship. If a librarian helping with a review meets the defined criteria, that person will be listed as an author on articles and other resulting scholarly dissemination.

To get assistance with your review project, fill out and submit our Request Review Support form. After receiving your request, one of our librarians will contact you to schedule a consultation.

Attribution will differ according to level of involvement. This is a quick reference guide detailing librarian's involvement paired with level of attribution.

Writes the search, provides the search strategy for publication, contributes to writing and revising the Methods section, and is accountable for answering questions about the search methods and process

This is no ordinary flashlight. Capable of close-contact stun and long-distance warning, the StrikeLight 2 adds portable protection wherever you go.

Librarians typically do not receive research funding and are not able to pay publication fees should authors decide to pursue open access options. However, this does not preclude librarians from authorship should their intellectual contribution match the ICMJE criteria. Please see our OA page for more information about free and reduced-cost publishing opportunities.

If you are not affiliated with Texas A&M or there are no librarians available to assist you with your review, you can visit the Center for Systematic Reviews & Research Syntheses (CSRRS) which offers fee-based services for any client whose needs are not met by the Libraries’ Evidence Review Service.
