Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request; ‘‘Patent and
Trademark Resource Centers Metrics’’
The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: United States Patent and
Trademark Office, Commerce
Title: Patent and Trademark Resource
Centers Metrics
OMB Control Number: 0651–0068
Form Number(s):
• N/A
Type of Request: Regular
Number of Respondents: 84 libraries,
for 336 responses per year.
Average Minutes per Response: 30
minutes
Burden Hours: 168
Cost Burden: $0
Needs and Uses:
The USPTO has undertaken a
revitalization of the Patent and
Trademark Depository Library Program
to reflect the new 21st Century
electronic approach to customer
services. As a part of this revitalization,
the name has changed to Patent and
Trademark Resource Center Program
and the nationwide network of libraries
are known as Patent and Trademark
Resource Centers (PTRCs). In addition,
to enable the USPTO to more effectively
train the PTRCs and the public to better
use the tools and data available to them
and to ascertain what types of new and
different services the PTRCs should
offer, the USPTO is requiring the centers
to provide metrics on the PTRC
outreach services and use of the patent
and trademark services.
Recognition as a PTRC is authorized
under the provisions of 35 U.S.C.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
2(a)(2), which provides that the USPTO
shall be responsible for disseminating to
the public information with respect to
patents and trademarks. In order to be
designated as a PTRC, libraries must
fulfill the following requirements: Assist
the public in the efficient use of patent
and trademark information resources;
provide free access to patent and
trademark resources provided by the
USPTO; provide metrics on the use of
patent and trademark services provided
by the member library as stipulated by
the USPTO; provide metrics on outreach
efforts conducted by the member library
as stipulated by the USPTO; and send
representatives to attend the USPTOhosted PTRC training seminars.
Since the PTRC requirements
stipulate that the participating libraries
must submit information (metrics) in
order to be designated as a PTRC, the
USPTO is submitting this new
information collection for review under
the PRA. The information collected will
enable the USPTO to more effectively
train the PTRC staff who, in turn,
provide assistance and training to
public customers in the areas of patent
and trademarks. As the PTRCs continue
to move away from the physical
distribution of hard copy information,
the USPTO is interested in what types
of new and different services the PTRC
of the future should offer its customers.
Collection of this information will
enable the USPTO to more effectively
service its current customers while
planning for the future.
The USPTO has developed a
worksheet to collect the metrics
concerning the use of the patent and
trademark services and the public
outreach efforts from the libraries. On
the USPTO’s behalf, the metrics will be
collected on a quarterly basis through a
third-party vendor. The information will
only be collected electronically. The
PTRCs will be given a password to input
their information.
Affected Public: Not-for-profit
institutions.
Frequency: Annually
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory
