In existence since 1996, the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) is an international non-profit organization based within the Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Adelaide in South Australia.  Similar to the most well-known of its many collaborators, the Cochrane Collaboration, the JBI’s mission is to “promote and support the synthesis, transfer and utilization of evidence through identifying feasible, appropriate, meaningful and effective healthcare practices to assist in the improvement of healthcare outcomes globally”.

In addition to its research, development, and training endeavors, JBI also is responsible for creating many resources and tools aimed at providing “you with the best available evidence to inform your clinical decision-making at the point of care”. The MSK Library recently added one of these information resources, the Joanna Briggs Institute EBP Database, to its collection – a great compliment to the library’s already substantive Evidence Based Practice toolbox.
