[PIUG List] FW: Your input for my Oct CAS/STN presentation on "why IP law research is different from IP patent research" is welcome

Friends and Colleagues:
 
    As I mentioned at the AALL PLL SIS IP Group in Portland this past
July, STN has rescheduled their "Americas Conference" for this October
5-7 now in Columbus. I also to bring the concerns of IP law firm
librarians to CAS/STN. Your comments and observations are not only
welcome - I need your help! Here's my unedited abstract:

        Several significant factors distinguish the use of patent
information in IP law firms from that of R&D in industry. The initial
difference is that the law firm researcher involvement in the patenting
process starts after the invention. This research concentrates on the
legal rather than the purely scientific or technical aspects of the
invention whether that be during the patent prosecution, administrative
proceedings in the Patent Office, the FDA, FTC or the ITC, litigation
and licensing. Law firm use of patent information is client driven not
only by only by the wide range of technologies represented from shoe
designs to nanotechnology but by client billing policies. As result,
most law firm patent researchers need a wider variety of both electronic
and print resources from information aggregators and document delivery
providers.

    I finally have a topic for the 10-15 minute presentation I am making
as part of a panel on chemical patent research grandly named "
"Managing Scientific Patent Information in the 21st Century" at upcoming
2007 CAS Americas Conference this October in Arizona.
 
    Colleagues, I solicit your comments, opinions and war stories on how
and why IP legal research in corporate legal departments and law firms
is different from research done by patent and chemical researchers. I
will gladly credit you with your help and shield your names and firms
from the public.
 
    I am in some heady and heavy hitter company on this panel. The other
panelists are Cynthia Barcelon Yang, Director of the Patent Analysis
Group at Bristol-Myers Squibb's Pharmaceutical Research Institute (PRI)
Information & Knowledge Integration Informatics and Anne Marie Clark,
PhD, a Principal Scientist, Intellectual Property at Bausch & Lomb in
Rochester, NY.
 
    Hope to hear from you soon as my abstract is due on the 17th!
 
Thanks in advance as always for your time and assistance,
 
Lucy
