The NHS-HE Forum work on Content Issues was for many years led by Paul Ayris, Director of Library Services and UCL Copyright Officer. Although still with his oversight, in more recent years the main role has been with Betsy Anagnostelis, Librarian at the Royal Free Hospital Medical Library and Joint Biomedical Team Leader, UCL Library Services. Ann Lees of NHS Education Scotland is the link for this work in Scotland.
