Copyright Guidance
What is CLA and why is it important?
The NHS Wales e-Library manages a Copyright Licence Agreement (CLA) Plus for NHS Wales. This means that we have a single licence that covers all NHS Wales staff and contractors, Social Care workers and managers in Wales, and Welsh Government Health & Social Services, Education & Public Services with the permission to copy and share the e-resources and printed materials available across Wales.
