Where can I find A.P.C. published applications for research?

This page is an FAQ based on guidance from the Manual of Patent Examining Procedure. It is provided as guidance, with links to the ground truth sources. This is information only: it is not legal advice.

A.P.C. published applications are available in several locations for research purposes:

1. The Patent Search Room contains a complete set of A.P.C. published applications arranged numerically in bound volumes.
2. An online database of U.S. A.P.C. bibliographic data is available at http://db.library.queensu.ca/apcdocuments/. This database contains 2964 total documents.

Researchers can use these resources to access and study A.P.C. published applications for historical or legal purposes.
