New offering provides research teams with expert medical librarian support and PRESS-compliant search methodologies
Ottawa, CANADA – January 28, 2026 DistillerSR, the market leader in AI-enabled literature review automation and evidence management software, today announced the launch of DistillerSR Library Services. The comprehensive service offering provides research teams with access to senior medical librarians to deliver validated, reproducible search strategies for regulatory submissions.
DistillerSR Library Services addresses a critical challenge facing life sciences organizations: developing defensible literature search strategies that meet regulatory standards while managing resource constraints. As the complexity of evidence-based research grows, organizations require specialized librarian services to avoid missing critical evidence, enhance search specificity, and meet regulatory requirements. DistillerSR Library Services provided subscription-based, fractional librarian services to deliver validated, reproducible search methodologies, so internal teams can focus on their core research competencies.
“Well-developed, regulatory-compliant search strategies require the services of professional librarians, but many organizations do not require these services full-time,” said Peter O’Blenis, CEO, DistillerSR. “With DistillerSR Library Services, organizations get fractional, subscription‑based access to senior medical librarians whenever they need them, avoiding the cost and complexity of hiring full‑time staff. This flexible model ensures every search strategy meets industry and regulatory expectations while significantly accelerating time to regulatory submission and market.”
DistillerSR Library Services uses Peer Review of Electronic Search Strategies (PRESS) compliant methodologies to ensure thorough, transparent, and reproducible literature searches. This approach helps research teams apply efficient, compliant, and high-quality search strategies, accelerating time to regulatory submission while maintaining the highest quality standards and managing overall costs.
DistillerSR Library Services are seamlessly integrated with the DistillerSR platform. Librarians work directly within customers’ DistillerSR project environments to import search results, perform deduplication, and establish search alerts. From initial search strategy development to the customers’ screening and data extraction, the service ensures an efficient, validated workflow that delivers auditability, reproducibility, and defensibility of regulatory submissions.
