Save the Date: Help Shape New Guidelines for Reporting Educational Research

Submitted by: Joey Nicholson

Join the MLA/AAHSL Joint Task Force on Educational Research and Assessment for an MLA Open Forum webinar on August 4, 2026, at 1:00 p.m., central time.

The Task Force is developing a checklist to strengthen the rigor, transparency, and reproducibility of educational research conducted in health sciences libraries. During the webinar, members will share progress to date, discuss preliminary community feedback, and explain how library professionals can contribute to refining the checklist and resulting recommendations.

Anyone who conducts, publishes, reviews, or has expertise in educational research is encouraged to participate. Your feedback will help shape practical guidance for improving the reporting of library-based educational research.

A recording will be available for those unable to attend.
