1. Copyright Fee Paid (CFP) articles
When and why do we use them?
What are they?
Articles for which a copyright fee has been paid to the publisher. Once obtained, they may be treated as if owned by the NHS, and shared and stored under the terms of the CLA Licence .
They typically cost £30-£40 each. However, an annual allocation is included in the cost of the CLA Licence for the NHS in England – so we can make them available FREE to NHS library services.
