AbstractThe paper first outlines the network of responsibilities for information and library matters in the UK as they relate to patents and to the Science Reference Library. It then follows with a review of progress with developing a library-based information network for patents (PIN), with using new technologies and with educating potential users to appreciate the value of patent information. Finally, it briefly describes the new indexing schedules (UIS) being introduced by the UK Patent Office in 1983.
