                          Notice of Publication of a
                           2002 Annual Index to the
                      Electronic Official Gazette of the
                Patent and Trademark Office - Patents (eOG:P)

AGENCY: Patent and Trademark Office, Commerce.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the United States
Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) will publish a 2002 Annual Index to
the electronic version of the Official Gazette of the United States
Patent and Trademark Office - Patents (eOG:P). This annual index will be
published on DVD-ROM.

DATES: The eOG:P began publication on July 2, 2002. Publication of the
eOG:P Annual Index for 2002 will occur in early 2003.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The USPTO has announced
that a 2002 Annual Index to the Electronic Official Gazette of the
United States Patent and Trademark Office - Patents (eOG:P) will be
published on DVD-ROM in early 2003. Although the eOG:P began
publication in July 2002, the eOG:P team is gathering and converting
the data from January through June in order to provide a complete
annual index.

   This annual index will be cumulative of the information
contained in the weekly issues of the eOG:P for 2002. Indexes and
bibliographic records for the year will be included in this one source.
Bibliographic records contain a representative claim and drawing (if
applicable) as well as classification, inventor and assignee
information. Consistent with the weekly eOG:P issues, patents can be
browsed by type of patent (utility, plant, etc.), classification (class
or class/subclass), patentee name, and geographical location. The
Official Gazette Notices, covering both patents and trademarks, will
also be included.

   Due to the large amount of data, the eOG:P Annual Index will be
published on one or two DVD-ROM discs, not on CD-ROM. The price of the
eOG:P Annual Index will be $300.00; it is not included in the annual
subscription price of the eOG:P. Subscribers will receive notification
when the annual index is available.

   The Index of Patents Issued From the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office will be published in paper format through 2002 to coincide with
the paper publication of the Official Gazette - Patents, the last paper
issue of which is September 24, 2002. This publication will continue to
be supplied by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government
Printing Office. For more information, please visit the GPO Web site
