In collaboration with the Bayamón PTRC and the USPTO Eastern Regional Outreach Office, we offered workshops and orientations about Intellectual Property in Spanish language in Puerto Rico.
Searching for solutions for inventors and entrepreneurs on the island that do not have computers or internet access, the UPR Library system in their eleven branches collaborated with the PTRCs to be the host for inventors that need assistance with technology access.
Bibliotecas Anfitrionas(host libraries) allow patrons to use the different libraries’ computers to communicate via videoconference when needed, with Mayagüez or Bayamón PTRC representatives.
