Evidence‐based veterinary medicine (EVM) is a concept that is increasingly discussed within the veterinary profession. One important form of evidence is published papers in the peer‐reviewed scientific literature. Reading scientific papers is one of the basic skills required to be able to follow the principles of EVM. However, it can be time‐consuming and difficult for vets to find time to read this relevant literature. Improving basic paper‐reading skills can reduce the time it takes to assess a paper, decide if it is relevant and valid, and apply it to a clinical setting.
