Innovative Companies Manage Intellectual Property

June 9, 2011 by IP.comInventors, Partners0

IP.com provides companies with the tools and solutions to more effectively manage their intellectual property and innovations.

Free Patent and Non-Patent Literature Database

Our Intellectual Property Library is a free international database of patent and patent-related publications. Our goal is to encourage worldwide access to resources where innovators can explore and understand patents, technologies, and related art. The database contains an ever increasing array of international patents (as published by the authorities) as well as non-patent literature (including our own Prior Art Database). The site features such things as full text and English translation searching along with unique “more-like-this” capabilities.

Start by Searching the Library or visiting the Library’s Resource Center.

Defensive Publishing

Our initial product, the Prior Art Database, was created to provide companies with a fast, effective, and centralized outlet for publishing and searching technical disclosures. In addition to electronic publication, the Prior Art Database collection is also published in print in our semi-monthly publication, The IP.com Journal, which is distributed to libraries and patent office worldwide.

Since its inception, the Prior Art Database has continued to grow, attracting many high profile clients such as IBM, General Electric, Motorola, Abbott Laboratories, and Eastman Kodak (to name a few). More importantly, it is searched and cited daily by patent examiners worldwide.

  • Tim Kingan: Mark, yes, your point about searching broadly and narrowing with use of technology class (and subclass) is important. However, when searching non-patent literature, proximity operators would be very useful, since keywords often need to be seen in their context in order to manage a workload. Scirus goes part way there by displaying snippets of text which may display more than one of provided keywords. However, for those tools I know of (Google Scholar, Scirus and now ip.com), proximity operators seem not to be available. View Post
