KNOWLEDGE EXCHANGE . . . Segment Searching in Patents: Getting to the Heart of the Matter

By Leanne Battle
Librarian Relations Consultant,
LexisNexis Librarian Relations Group

When I was a law firm librarian, a new associate walked into my office and requested a copy of the patent for the original telephone.

Sounded straightforward enough. So I turned to the USPTO immediately. But there was no help there because searching for patents issued prior to 1976 required a patent number or current classification, neither of which I knew. I could have saved myself some time by starting with the LexisNexis services.

I realized there would be thousands of telephone-related patents that referred to Alexander Graham Bell, and since I did not remember the exact date of the invention (my apologies to the history teachers out there), I needed to narrow my search.

Fortunately the LexisNexis services offer a wide variety of document segments for patent searching. Beginning in 1836, utility patents can be searched through LexisNexis using the Detailed Description segment (DETDESC) and the Claims segment (CLAIMS), among others. That allowed me to search patents based on how the invention is described and what the inventor claims it can do.

My search—DETDESC(telephone) AND graham bell—retrieved a mere 51 patents. Patent search results are returned in reverse chronological order, so I simply went to the last entry in the list and Voila!—Patent No. 186787, the telephone, complete with a PDF of the official patent.

So I got curious. What other handy segments might there be for searching patents? Beginning in 1971, utility, plant and design patents available through www.lexis.com are truly full-text searchable and include drawings, equations and chemical structures.

A quick look at the source’s online description (Just click the “i” icon next to the menu title.) revealed that I can search a variety of segments, including TITLE, INVENTOR and ASSIGNEE (the entity that holds the rights to the patent). I can also search segments useful in the litigation process, such as LEGAL-REP, EXPIRATION-DATE and LIT-REEX (notices of litigation or requests for re-examination).

A few weeks later, my curiosity about patent searching paid off. I was asked to create a list of U.S. patents held by a number of our clients. Not just any patents, though. I needed patents due to expire within the next two years that had another law firm listed as the legal representative. This was business we wanted to bring into the firm.

Of course, I could have constructed a separate search for each client, but I’m too budget- and time-conscious for that. I wanted a single search that would satisfy all of the requirements.

Here’s my search: (All names have been changed to “protect the innocent.”)

ENTER: ASSIGNEE(Cingular OR Motorola OR Nokia OR Panasonic) AND expiration-date>2000 AND NOT LEGAL-REP(XYZ)

Ta-Da! Now for the follow-up. Service-oriented librarian that I am, I offered to update this list on a monthly basis. I set up a monthly ECLIPSE™ feature search under my own LexisNexis ID. (This is significantly less expensive than manually running this search each month.)

Each month, when the new results arrived, I ran a quick FOCUS™ search on each client name (at no additional charge), arranged the individual cite lists alphabetically by client name and delivered them to the partner in charge of the Patents group. She was overjoyed, and I scored major points for the library!

You can do the same. And you have several resources to help you. For additional information on searching patent materials on the LexisNexis services, check out the 30-page Intellectual Property Research Guide available at http://www.lexisnexis.com/literature/default.asp or contact your LexisNexis Librarian Relations Consultant.

TAKE A TOUR . . . Tax Research Tasks Page Brings Together the Best LexisNexis Offers

The names your tax practitioners rely upon are here—CCH®, Tax Analysts, Inc., BNA®, EDGARPlus®, Matthew Bender® and more. But the expertise that the LexisNexis® Tax Research Tasks page offers is only part of its value.

Not only can you find premier analysis and the most current primary coverage, but you can get the most complex tax information with simple search forms and links. You can complete many tasks in one step, without moving through menu screens to select a resource. Just fill in the form’s blanks and choose an option from a drop-down menu.

You’ll find the Tax Research Tasks page under the RESEARCH TASKS tab at www.lexis.com.  Select Tax from the list of Research Tasks pages.

Or you can select the Tax Research Tasks page as your default tasks page, i.e., whenever you select the RESEARCH TASKS tab, the Tax Research Tasks page will display automatically. To set the default, click the Set as my default Research Task Page link at the top of the Tax Research Tasks page.

Here’s what you’ll find when you turn to the Tax Research Tasks page:

A  Search Tax Sources
Search the source you need, or—more importantly—combine any or all of the sources listed and search them simultaneously.

B  Tax News and Legal Developments
Click to read the most recent issue of the most respected analysis in the tax marketplace. Then select New Search to research all past issues. Or choose to go to any of the last 10 issues.

C  Quick Tax Searches
Find lots of options here. Get an IRC section, Treasury regulation, Federal Register document or current U.S. bill by cite. There’s cite formatting help right there, too. Or retrieve tax cases by cite, party name, docket number—or even by specific LexisNexis® Core Terms words or LexisNexis® Case Summaries findings.

D  Get an IRS Ruling or Release
When you know the cite, you can choose from more than 15 document types—everything from CFR documents and General Counsel Memoranda to Private Letter Rulings and Treasury Decisions. Just select, add the citation in the pre-formatted box and click GO.

E  Find IRC Annotations
Here’s a simple way to get to Code interpretation and subsequent decisions. Just choose your IRC section and add search terms. To go directly to the right portions of the lengthy sections, go to the Terms box in the lower right corner of your results screen. Click the arrow to move from search term to search term.

F  Quick EDGAR®/SEC Filing Searches
Find full-text Exhibit 8 and Exhibit 10 filings from EDGARPlus.

G  Find Tax Public Records
Locate people, businesses or property; find bankruptcy filings, judgments & liens or U.S. District Courts civil and criminal filings; check verdicts, settlements and experts; check Social Security Death Records; or take a close look at businesses through Dun & Bradstreet® or Experian® reports and SEC filings. Even check non-U.S. public records.

Each link on the right side of the Tax Research Tasks page takes you to another page filled with resources, literally opening another window to more tax sources. For example, choose from:

1  More Tax Information
Link to everything from expert analysis and law reviews to company news and federal and state legislation.

2  Tax Publishers
Zero in on the tax publisher you prefer. Select a publisher—and move to a new page displaying that publisher’s offerings.

4  LexisNexis Products

FYI FLASH . . . 1) LexisNexis® Research On Call: When You Need an Extra Body ... But Can’t Add More Staff; 2) LexisNexis Honored to Serve U.S. Courts

LexisNexis® Research On Call:  When You Need an Extra Body ... But Can’t Add More Staff
OK. You’re two months into 2005 budgets. So far so good?

Or have you had a few surprises already? Like a couple of brand new cases—big ones with short research deadlines. Or a library staffer who needed to go on medical leave three weeks early. You’re happy she and the baby are fine, but you’re very short-handed and overworked.

LexisNexis Research On Call can help you manage the ebb and flow of projects and staffing without adding researchers—and without blowing your research budget. That’s because you use LexisNexis Research On Call when you need it. You know the cost in advance; you approve the charges before any work is completed.

LexisNexis Research On Call provides your organization* an extra experienced researcher when needed—just call 24/7 365 days a year.

When you dial LexisNexis Research On Call at 800-273-9295, a Research Coordinator takes your research request information. After your request is confirmed, a Research Specialist will be assigned based on how well their background matches your topic.

All power users of the LexisNexis services, Research Specialists also have professional experience and advanced degrees such as Juris Doctor, Master of Business Administration and Master of Library Science, or professional certifications such as Certified Public Accountants and Series 7.

The end product you’ll receive is in accordance with the time frames agreed upon and in the format you designated after consulting with LexisNexis Research On Call staff, including formats that can be virtually presented to your patrons, such as reports of research findings or a memorandum of law.

In addition to staff shortages and unexpected research overloads, LexisNexis Research On Call can give you and your staff temporary bandwidth to handle tasks that require internal expertise.  For example, while you and your staff manage the research for the two new high-profile cases, LexisNexis Research On Call specialists can complete research projects that by their nature are time-consuming, such as:

• multi-state statutory or regulatory research
• federal or state legislative history research
• in-depth profile of a company and its subsidiary for due diligence or merger & acquisition
• profiling of an industry for a new or potential client

Or maybe you and your team prefer to handle such major research projects.  LexisNexis Research On Call specialists can also complete more basic but necessary tasks, including cite checking and verification. Or use LexisNexis Research On Call specialists to retrieve news stories, press releases, SEC filings, bankruptcy filings, U.S. and Canadian patents, cases, statutes, regulations, Private Letter Rulings, etc.
You decide.

Make LexisNexis Research On Call Work for You

1. Call 800-273-9295.**
2. Describe your research issue to the research coordinator.
3. Check your work order and confirm the scope of the research, delivery date and cost.
4. Your results will be e-mailed to you—ready to download or print.

That’s it until the next time you call. Pricing is based on two components—search charges and a professional services fee. The search charges come from the terms and rates of your organization’s current LexisNexis subscription plan. The professional service fee is determined by the number of hours that it takes to complete the project at $140 per hour (minimum of $35).

* LexisNexis Research On Call is not currently available in academic institutions or government facilities.
**If this is your first time using LexisNexis Research On Call, you will need to complete
the Master Service Addendum (MSA). There is no fee to do this, but it is necessary to comply with additional Terms and Conditions.
