World Intellectual Property Report Now Available

Current members of the Duke Law community now have access to World Intellectual Property Report, a monthly newsletter of global developments in patents, trademarks, copyrights, and related topics. WIPR includes analysis of intellectual property legislation, case law, treaties and other news from all over the world. A “country index” allows quick access to news from particular places of interest; the European Union and World Intellectual Property Organization are also featured regularly.

Access the WIPR current issues and article archive (back to 1997) through the BNA Publications Library (http://library.duke.edu/metasearch/db/id/DUK02057). You can choose to read or search the WIPR on-site or sign up for e-mail delivery of upcoming issues.

Looking for more IP information? Our newly-updated Intellectual Property Law research guide (http://www.law.duke.edu/lib/researchguides/intprop) now includes a link to WIPR, as well as recommended treatises, websites, and research strategies for patents, trademarks, copyrights and other IP topics.
