This article describes some strategies that can be used by Librarians to assist patrons in historical patent research. It, additionally, includes a list of sources and highlights special materials that are available at Patent and Trademark Depository Libraries.

Toeing The Line Between Offense And Education, Natalie S. Sherif Oct 2013

Toeing The Line Between Offense And Education, Natalie S. Sherif

Blogging the Library
