  4. The moment has come...

  5. What is the purpose of today’s meeting?

  6. What is the purpose of today’s meeting? to prioritise recommendations relating to The Cochrane Library, particularly the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Reviews, and derivative products to inform the direction of work for the next three to five yearsfor the Cochrane Editorial Unit and editorial teams, the publisher of our products, and The Cochrane Collaboration as a whole.

  7. What is the purpose of today’s meeting? to prioritise recommendations relating to The Cochrane Library, particularly the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Reviews, and derivative products to inform the direction of work for the next three to five yearsfor the Cochrane Editorial Unit and editorial teams, the publisher of our products, and The Cochrane Collaboration as a whole. • Time to stop and reflect • How are we doing? • Where are we going?

  8. Our objectives for Wednesday: basis for 5 year strategy and work plan • To identify and celebrate the Collaboration’s collective achievements: what do we need to protect? • To explore the recommendations in this paper • To identify and prioritise those changes that can be implemented following this mid-year meeting • To identify those changes needing consultation, and to develop a plan to achieve this, with responsibilities and outcomes • If appropriate, to identify those things we can stop doing

  9. Major themes • What are our stakeholders telling us? – need to look outside the tent • Need to find solutions not problems • Quality is at the core of everything we do

  10. Three major elements: • Create high quality, impact high quality content (reviews) • Optimise presentation and delivery • Get Cochrane content into practice and policy (knowledge translation)

  11. What can possibly go wrong? • Lose sight of the external viewpoint • Get lost in the detail (the clue in the name!) • Talking shop, no follow through • Inertia (too busy, all volunteers etc etc)

  12. Solutions to the above: • Mandate, not mandatory • Implementation pathway over 3-5 years • Some recommendations can help to reduce workload

  13. Thank you..........

  14. How can we meet stakeholders needs? • Engage • Active management of CRG portfolios • Coverage • Relevance • “Big ticket” questions • Management of CDSR in general • Content gaps • Duplication • Cross CRG items • Mix

  15. What content should we produce? • How can we maximise the impact?

  16. How can we maximise the impact?

  17. Summary Summary • Quality and impact are crucial: better, fewer, more relevant reviews? • Listen to and engage with our stakeholders • Mandate not mandatory • 3-5 year strategy and work planto be presented at Colloquium 2012 • Quality and impact are crucial
