The search and advisory service of the United Kingdom Patent Office

M.J.R. Blackman and S.N. Dennehey

World Patent Information, 1987, vol. 9, issue 2, 88-91

Abstract: As part of its policy of continually improving the facilities available to the public for retrieval of patent and trade mark information, the UKPO has launched the 'Search and Advisory Service'. Initial emphasis has been on trade marks and service marks, including searching online the UKTM database supplied by the Office's Trade Mark Registry and hosted by Pergamon InfoLine. Activities are being extended further into the online patents field, including services based on the Office's patents database which will shortly also be available online via InfoLine. State-of-the-art and related patent searches carried out through the Office's own hard copy collection of British and foreign patent specifications arranged, primarily, according to the United Kingdom Classification Key are also embraced.
