The NMSU PTRC continues to help inventors with patents and entrepreneurs with trademark research very regularly. We have a physical space available for researchers in the Zuhl Library. However, the vast majority of patrons take advantage of our virtual Zoom option for consultations.
With the recent legalization of cannabis in New Mexico, we have met with several entrepreneurs looking for trademark guidance in this area.
The NMSU PTRC homepage recorded 753 hits for the year.
Continuing to work with Arrowhead Center on campus, the New Mexico SBDC, and the Technology innovation office at New Mexico Tech to provide outreach opportunities in the state.
We had a backlog of unbound plant patents which we were able to resolve. We sent more than 75 plant patent volumes to the bindery and I’m happy to report they are happily at home on the shelves.
Very proud of our beautiful collection of plant patents! All of our patent related material in the library has been consolidated in the Government Documents area of the library over the past four years.
