CLAIMS Files Update Faster Than Ever!

Dialog is pleased to announce that CLAIMS^®/U.S. Patents files (Files 340, 341, 942) are searchable online sooner than in the past. Weekly updates are now received via FTP transmission. Delays incurred in waiting for tapes to arrive are gone, so file updates can be processed several days earlier than in the past. As of March 2001, you can search CLAIMS files by the beginning of the business day on Wednesdays for the previous day's USPTO patent publications.
