Working with Colleagues from Other Institutions
Any Memorial University user connected to Covidence with a Memorial University account may create new reviews and invite unlimited reviewers from anywhere in the world.
However, due to copyright laws and publisher licensing agreements, there are restrictions on sharing full-text articles with individuals who are not affiliated with Memorial University.
Memorial University reviewers working with colleagues from other institutions should not upload full-text articles obtained through Memorial University Library subscriptions or document delivery services to Covidence. Open access articles may be uploaded. Article doi links may also be used to facilitate full-text access.
If you have questions about uploading full-text articles, please contact hslinfo@mun.ca.
