By Christopher P. Singer --
In the December 26, 2007 Federal Register, the USPTO
announced that
it will discontinue publishing the paper form of the Official Gazette, after
the December 25, 2007 publication. The
weekly USTPO notices will be published in the electronic Official Gazette (the
eOG:P) and will display the notices with the volume/page numbers, and the last
weekly eOG:P of each calendar year will include the annual publication of the
consolidated notices pertaining to USPTO practices and procedures. The prior versions of the eOG:P did not
include the volume/page numbers, which were present in the separate paper
publication. The eOG:P, which will
display the weekly notices (with volume/page numbers), can be found here beginning on Tuesday, January 1, 2008. The first consolidated annual publication of
the eOG:P will be published at the end of 2008 (i.e., the notices from 2007
will not be indexed in a consolidated eOG:P with volume/page numbers).
