Patent ordering via DocXpress

Ever tried downloading an entire patent document from a free service such as the USPTO or EspaceNet? If so, you know that they won't let you download more than one page at time, making it very difficult to obtain a complete patent document.

Starting February 1st, the Lane Library will be offering a service to retrieve complete patent documents to holders of a SUNet ID who are associated with the School of Medicine, free of charge.

Using Lane's DocXpress service, patrons will be able to request a patent and receive a PDF version of the document. See this FAQ for details.
