About Introduction to the BIPC for Postgraduate Researchers
Join Research Development and the Business & Intellectual Property Centre (BIPC) team to learn about the BIPC and its collections.
Understand how to access the national collection of patent specifications, official patent, trade mark, and design journals, and officially and commercially published indexes and abstracts. We also hold a collection of Trade Literature from mid-19th century to the present, including catalogues, market reports, trade directories, trade journals, annual reports, and books covering all aspects of business and management.
Plus learn about BIPC services, receive an introduction to intellectual property, and meet researchers with similar research interests.
Refreshments will be provided during the break. Please let us know if you have any dietary requirements (allergies or intolerances), but please be aware we cannot accommodate preferences. If you have any questions about this event or would like to discuss accessibility or dietary requirements, please contact pgr@bl.uk.
