Inventions, Patents, and Related Matters

Abstract

The substance of this handbook has been carefully selected and compiled from that body of statutory patent law, common law, Patent Office practices and procedures, and defense regulations and policies pertinent to the questions that most frequently arise in the administration of inventions, patents, copyrights, and proprietary technical data. The handbook is not intended to serve as or supersede regulations in any way, but has been compiled primarily from the viewpoint of the Government engineer, scientist or other employee, contract administrator, or contractor, with the express purpose of providing him with a ready reference that will assist in the initiation of prompt and effective action upon that phase or segment of the particular problem as to invention, patent, copyright, or proprietary technical data with which he is dealing. Of particular importance to scientific and technical personnel is the information concerning the proper preparation of engineering notebooks and other research records which may ultimately establish priority of invention.
