Annual Index of Patents
Issued from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
Subscriber Notice

The 2004 Annual Index to Patents Issued from the USPTO is now available. This electronic annual index includes both the indexes and Official Gazette – Patents (OG) bibliographic records for the year in this one source.

The OG records contain bibliographic information, including classification, inventor and assignee, as well as a representative claim and drawing (if applicable). The OG records are indexed and browsable by classification and type of patent (utility, plant, etc.), in addition to patentee name and geographical location of the inventor. Links are provided from all indexes to the record for that patent.

The year’s Official Gazette Notices, covering both patents and trademarks, are included as is the Consolidated Listing of Official Gazette Notices Re-Patent and Trademark Office Practices and Procedures. This publication is a compilation of the most important notices and rule changes which have been published in the Official Gazette from July 1, 1964, through December 31, 2004. Appendices include a summary of the number of Patents, Defensive Publications, and Statutory Invention Registrations issued from 1836 through 2004 and a listing of Patent and Trademark Depository Libraries (PTDLs).

Due to the large amount of data, the 2004 Annual Index is published on one DVD-ROM disc, not on CD-ROM. The price of the index is $315.00.

The Index of Patents Issued from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office will continue to be published in a paper format through the 2000 Index. The paper publication will continue to be supplied by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO).
