During this 30-minute virtual appointment, San Diego Public Library Staff will provide you with instruction on how to conduct prior art searches using search tools online, such as TESS.

Please note, SDPL staff members are not able to conduct patent searches for you and cannot provide legal advice. The library’s staff can, however, assist you in finding reference materials that allow you to conduct your own research.

If you are looking for help with specific legal questions including applications, patentability and trademark please visit the USPTO’s website for information about finding an attorney and other legal resources: https://www.uspto.gov/patents/basics/legal-assistance-and-resources

We won't be able to explore PubEAST or PubWEST during virtual appointments, but we will demonstrate search strategies using other databases (e.g. PatFT and TESS).
