I found the Evidence Based Practice for Librarians course to be a valuable learning experience. As a librarian in Egypt, I was interested in learning more about evidence-based! practice and how it can be applied in my context. The course provided a good overview of the key concepts and principles, and the instructor was helpful in clarifying any questions I had. One of the highlights of the course was the opportunity to work on a project that allowed me to apply the concepts learned to a real-world scenario. The course materials were generally good, although some of the readings could be more up-to-date. Overall, I would recommend this course to librarians who are looking to develop their skills in evidence-based practice.

I recently completed the Evidence Based Practice for Librarians course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a thoroughly enjoyable and enriching experience. As a librarian in France, I was keen to develop my skills in evidence-based practice and explore how it can be applied in a European context. The course provided a comprehensive overview of the key concepts and principles, and the instructor was knowledgeable and supportive throughout. I appreciated the opportunity to engage with the course materials, which included a range of scholarly articles, case studies, and multimedia resources. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more examples and scenarios from diverse cultural and linguistic contexts. Nevertheless, I would recommend this course to librarians who are seeking to enhance their skills in evidence-based practice and stay current with the latest developments in the field.
