Our team has been restructured to improve the way we work across University Hospitals Sussex, Brighton and Sussex Medical School and the wider Sussex health system. This means new key contacts to be aware of if you’d like to get in touch.
Our new structure divides our work between:
- Learning & Teaching – including learning technology and the library enquiry desks.
- Research & Evidence – which covers our knowledge specialists, document management and services to local Sussex organisations.
- Information Resources & Patient Education – to centralise our management of journals, books, databases and patient education leaflets.
- And the Knowledge Management team who run our KnowledgeShare software.
Ben Skinner is Head of Knowledge, Libraries and Learning Technology, taking a strategic overview of the whole service.
