Scientific paper

The Australian Astronomical Observatory operates the Anglo-Australian Telescope and the United Kingdom Schmidt Telescope in Australia, as well as coordinating access for the Australian community to the Gemini, Magellan, and other international telescope facilities. We review here the processes involved within the AAO related to allocating observing time on these facilities, as well as the impact on telescope use of both the Large Program projects and the AAO's instrument program.
