[ILL-L] Patents

[Bierma, Lynn]

We have a big patents section in our library.  If you like, you can send us a blank OCLC workform (just give us the name of the patent, etc....don't worry about an OCLC number) or fax us an ALA request for it.  We're a Patent Depository.
 
You can also try http://www.patentstorm.us/ for 1990 on.  I'm not aware that the U.S. Patent office has an ILL office.

I know this has been discussed before, but, as usual, when one needs it the information is not readily available.

A patron wants a 1982 patent and I do not recall how to request this from either the Patent Office or some other location that may own it.

Appreciate the help the list serve readers provide.
