Abstract
Description: An automated system for building Cochrane entity websites is in the final stages of development. A handful of Review Groups and Centres are involved as pilots. This workshop will prepare you to use the website builder. The system will help you, with minimal effort, to build and maintain a professional, up-to-date, and content-rich site containing automatically updated materials from cochrane.org, your entity's module, and other sources. In the workshop, you will learn how you can start using central Cochrane Collaboration content in your entity's website to:

1 reduce your workload;
2. keep visitors to your site informed and up-to-date, more easily;
3. include your entity's news feeds and event calendars;
4. incorporate Collaboration calendars, jobs lists;
5. incorporate this year's new review-production and training materials;
6. provide entity-specific review browsing and searching; and
7. improve the public image of your group.

Participate in a discussion on how to best share the benefits of this pilot project with every entity. Workshop led by the Cochrane Web Team.

Target audience: Staff of Cochrane entities

Style: Training and discussion workshop
