View this recording for a succinct and helpful introduction to the purpose and use of Covidence.

To join the Queen's institutional account, you will first need to create a personal Covidence account, using your Queen's email address.

If you are a Queen's member, once you have your personal Covidence account, go to https://www.covidence.org/organizations/5nqJ3/signup to request an invitation to the Queen's University account.  Enter your information using a Queen's email account and click Request Invitation.

Open the email invitation and select Accept Invitation.

If you are not a Queen's member you will need to be invited to a specific review to have access to just that review, and not the entire Queen's account. You will still need to have a personal Covidence account so that when sent an invitation to a review, you can sign in to Covidence to accept that invitation.

Sign in to Covidence here.
