[Docket No. 2002-C-006]
Notice of Publication of a 2002 Annual Index to the Electronic
Official Gazette of the Patent and Trademark Office--Patents (eOG:P)
AGENCY: Patent and Trademark Office, Commerce.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the United States Patent and
Trademark Office (USPTO) will publish a 2002 Annual Index to the
electronic version of the Official Gazette of the United States Patent
and Trademark Office--Patents (eOG:P). This annual index will be
published on DVD-ROM.
DATES: The eOG:P began publication on July 2, 2002. Publication of the
eOG:P Annual Index for 2002 will occur in early 2003.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The USPTO has announced that a 2002 Annual
Index to the Electronic Official Gazette of the United States Patent
and Trademark Office--Patents (eOG:P) will be published on DVD-ROM in
early 2003. Although the eOG:P began publication in July 2002, the
eOG:P team is gathering and converting the data from January through
June in order to provide a complete annual index.
This annual index will be cumulative of the information contained
in the weekly issues of the eOG:P for 2002. Indexes and bibliographic
records for the year will be included in this one source. Bibliographic
records contain a representative claim and drawing (if applicable) as
well as classification, inventor and assignee information. Consistent
with the weekly eOG:P issues, patents can be browsed by type of patent
(utility, plant, etc.), classification (class or class/subclass),
patentee name, and geographical location. The Official Gazette Notices,
covering both patents and trademarks, will also be included.
Due to the large amount of data, the eOG:P Annual Index will be
published on one or two DVD-ROM discs, not on CD-ROM. The price of the
eOG:P Annual Index will be $300.00; it is not included in the annual
subscription price of the eOG:P. Subscribers will receive notification
when the annual index is available.
The Index of Patents Issued From the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office will be published in paper format through 2002 to coincide with
the paper publication of the Official Gazette--Patents, the last paper
issue of which is September 24, 2002. This publication will continue to
be supplied by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government
Printing Office. For more information, please visit the GPO Web site
