IP Mall Resources

Mission for IP Mall Hosted Resources Section

Welcome. IP Mall visitors come from a wide range of backgrounds including: lawyers, judges, academics, students, paralegals, business professionals, scientists, government personnel, inventors, publishers, content creators and anyone else just interested in intellectual property, commerce and technology. No single site can serve all the needs of such a diverse user group.

Our assumption is that legal researchers use premium (e.g. Lexis and Westlaw), low fee (e.g. LoisLaw) and no fee (e.g. USPTO, Copyright Office, WIPO, GPO, FindLaw, Cornell LII and many others) to find the primary sources of IP law (cases, statutes, treaties, regulations and procedural manuals) as well as proprietary secondary legal sources in mainstream publication.

Our mission is to offer unique content not available on these other Websites. This content includes Pierce Law produced papers and scholarship, collections of public domain content not online or spanning time periods before other Web collections, unique dedicated topical portals (e.g. Traditional Knowledge Online), News (e.g. IP News Blog) as well as miscellaneous content from IP Mall users looking for a place to host their works.

The Hosted Resources section of the IP Mall is dynamic and changes day to day as we cannot anticipate the opportunities that present. This presents a challenge in the organization of such an eclectic mix of resources. One tip to best access the site is to use the internal Google search engine in conjunction with our menus and navigation section.

Your suggestions and content contributions are very much wanted. Please feel free to email me as we are about meeting the vision of the Pierce Law founder, Dr. Robert Rines - "You see a need, you fill it."

Enjoy.
