The search documentation of the European patent office

Abstract

The EPO has two classified search documentations available, one in the Hague and one in Berlin. The documentation is mainly organized according to the IPC with a large number of additional internal subdivisions. Use is also made of deep indexing systems, hybrid systems and the topological DARC system. On-line searching of external data bases has recently been introduced. The use of on-line search services and the increased use of JP and SU patent documents will increase the need for rapid consultation of documents, and give a new impetus to the use of computers and of modern data carriers.
