CoLRev: An open-source environment for collaborative reviews

Collaborative Literature Reviews (CoLRev)

Summary

CoLRev is an open-source environment for collaborative literature reviews. It integrates with differerent synthesis tools, takes care of the data, and facilitates Git-based collaboration.

To accomplish these goals, CoLRev advances the design of review technology at the intersection of methods, design, cognition, and community building. The following features stand out:

• Supports all literature review steps: problem formulation, search, dedupe, (pre)screen, pdf retrieval and preparation, and synthesis
• An open and extensible environment based on shared data and process standards
• Builds on git and its transparent collaboration model for the entire literature review process
• Offers a self-explanatory, fault-tolerant, and configurable user workflow
• Operates a model for data quality, content curation, and reuse
• Enables typological and methodological pluralism throughout the process

For details, consult the documentation.
