En parallèle, un dossier papier temporaire était créé, comportant les pages conservées électroniquement par balayage, de même que la correspondance envoyée par le Bureau (et produite par TechSource). Au mois de juin 1999, le Bureau a décidé d’interrompre le maintien dans le dossier papier temporaire de copies sur papier de la correspondance envoyée par le Bureau. Le public et les professionnels de la propriété intellectuelle ont été informés de ce changement de pratique par des avis publiés dans la Gazette du Bureau des brevets et sur le site Web du Bureau, ainsi que par l’entremise du Comité de liaison conjoint. Il a alors été indiqué que le Bureau entendait éventuellement mettre fin à la pratique de constituer les dossiers temporaires sur papier. Le Bureau a étudié depuis juin 1999 les impacts résultant de l’abandon de la pratique de constitution de dossiers temporaires sur papier. - Un contrôle de qualité a été effectué à l’aide d’un sousensemble de brevets et de demandes en déchéance, de façon à établir l’exhaustivité et la fiabilité du dossier électronique, comparativement au dossier sur papier. Le dossier électronique s’est avéré exhaustif et fiable. - Les Archives nationales ont avisé le Bureau que leur intérêt pour l’archivage des dossiers de brevets se limitait aux brevets à contenu canadien (soit les brevets où l’on compte au moins un Canadien parmi les inventeurs); or, le Bureau prévoit conclure un protocole d’entente avec les Archives nationales, suivant lequel les brevets résultant d’un dépôt postérieur au mois d’avril 2000 seront transmis aux Archives sous forme électronique. De plus, les deux parties poursuivent des discussions sur la possibilité que les brevets déposés sous la nouvelle Loi sur les brevets, et octroyés depuis juin 1997, soient transmis aux Archives sous forme électronique. Background In June 1997, the Patent Office deployed the TechSource processing system, and started scanning all new applications and related incoming correspondence and documents into TechSource. The scanned pages were stored in a Temporary Paper File, along with paper copies of outgoing correspondence created from TechSource. In June 1999, the Patent Office stopped placing paper copies of outgoing correspondence in the Temporary Paper File. The Profession and public were advised of this initiative by notice in the CPOR, on the Web site, and also at the JLC. At the same time, notice was given that the Patent Office intended to eventually discontinue creating a Temporary Paper File. Since June 1999, the Patent Office has investigated the discontinuation of the Temporary Paper File. -A sample of issued patents and dead applications was quality checked, to determine the completeness and quality of the electronic version, compared to the paper version. The electronic version was found to be complete and of good quality. -National Archives has informed the Patent Office that they are interested only in preserving patents of Canadian archival significance (invented by at least one Canadian). The Patent Office expects to have an agreement with National Archives to start accepting patents filed after April 2000 in electronic form. The two parties are also investigating having National Archives accept New Act patents granted back to June 1997, in electronic form. Vol. 128 No. 13 March 28 mars 2000 8 Notices -The Patent Office has sought legal opinion as to the applicability of the electronic version as being the official version. No legal impediment that would prevent the Patent Office from following this course of action have been noted. New Procedures Starting April 1, 2000, the Patent Office will stop placing any newly filed applications, as well as related correspondence and documents, in Temporary Paper Files. The paper will be destroyed after a quality check has been made to ensure that each page has been properly scanned into TechSource. This means that for all applications fully on Techsource, the TechSource version is the official version of the patent document. -Le Bureau a obtenu un avis juridique sur la valeur légale d’une banque de dossiers officiels sous forme électronique. Aucune objection de nature légale n’a été identifiée à l’encontre de cette modification de la pratique du Bureau. Nouvelle procédure À compter du 1er avril 2000, le Bureau des brevets ne constituera plus de dossiers temporaires sur papier des demandes déposées à cette date ou postérieurement; il en sera de même pour la correspondance ou la documentation qui leur sont associées. La documentation reçue sur papier sera détruite après avoir fait l’objet d’un contrôle de la qualité, afin de s’assurer que toutes les pages ont été entrées correctement sur TechSource. En conséquence, lorsqu’une demande est conservée entièrement sur TechSource, l’information trouvée sur TechSource constitue la version officielle du dossier du brevet. De plus, le Bureau procédera systématiquement à l’élimination des dossiers temporaires sur papier dans le cas des demandes abandonnées dont le délai de rétablissement est échu (demandes mortes). In addition, the Patent Office will systematically destroy the existing Temporary Paper Files for applications that have become abandoned and the time for reinstatement has expired (dead applications). 9 Vol. 128 No. 13 March 28 mars 2000 Avis 18. Notice concerning the database for ownership information This is a follow-up to the Canadian Patent Office Record notice published on July 14,1998, regarding the Person/Company entity (PERC), a TECHSOURCE database for ownership information. Each person or company name contained in the said database is assigned an identifier number, similar to the agent registration number. This allows the Office to identify and enter ownership information by simply entering a number corresponding to the owner and/or inventor’s name and significantly reduces the need for data entry and the error rate. 18. Avis concernant la base de données des propriétaires La présente fait suite à l’avis publié dans la Gazette du Bureau des brevets le 14 juillet 1998, concernant les entités de Personne/Entreprise (PERC), base de données des propriétaires dans le système TechSource. Un numéro identificateur unique, similaire au numéro d’enregistrement des agents de brevets, est associé à chaque nom de personne et de compagnie contenues dans cette base de données. Ceci permet au Bureau d’identifier et d’entrer l’information sur les propriétaires en entrant simplement le numéro associé au nom du propriétaire et/ou au nom de l’inventeur, réduisant ainsi le taux d’erreurs et la manipulation manuelle des données. En conformité avec les normes du PCT, l’information concernant le propriétaire est inscrit en lettres majuscules, incluant les noms d’individus et les appellations commerciales. Conséquemment, l’information dans la base de données du Bureau des brevets et sur toutes correspondances émanant du Bureau apparaîtra en lettres majuscules. Il serait souhaitable que les noms d’individus apparaissant à la pétition soient identifiés comme suit: d’abord le nom de famille en lettres majuscules, suivi du prénom en majuscules ou minuscules. Ceci facilitera la distinction du nom et du prénom. Par exemple: “SMITH, JOSEPH” - le nom de famille suivi d’une virgule et du prénom. “EDWIN COOPER, INC.” - le nom d’un individu comme nom de compagnie. Les caractères spéciaux ne seront pas utilisés, comme par exemple : SOCIETE DES PRODUITS NESTLE S.A.” MACDONALD ENGINEERING COMPANY” et MCPHAR GEOPHYSICS LIMITED”. Le Bureau des brevets n’effectuera pas les corrections d’ordres mineures ou de divergences mineures sur les abréviations et la ponctuation, i.e., Co. pour Compagnie; Inc. pour Incorporé; Ltd. pour Limitée; et S.A. pour Société Anonyme; i.e., “DRUG INNOVATION & DESIGN ,INC.” ou “DRUG INNOVATION & DESIGN INCORPORATED” In conformance with the PCT formats, ownership information is entered in UPPER CASE characters, including the name of individuals and trade-names. Consequently, the information in the Patent Office databases and outgoing correspondence will appear in UPPER CASE characters. It is desirable that individual’s name be submitted in the petition or any other documents by identifying the surname first, in upper case characters, followed by the first name in mixed characters. This will assist the Canadian Patent Office in determining the order. For example: “SMITH, JOSEPH” - the surname first, immediately followed by a comma and the first name. “EDWIN COOPER, INC.”- an individual’s name used as a company name. Special characters will not be used, such as in “SOCIETE DES PRODUITS NESTLE S.A.”; “MACDONALD ENGINEERING COMPANY” and “MCPHAR GEOPHYSICS LIMITED”. The Patent Office will not effect correction of minor errors or discrepancies such as for company’s abbreviation and punctuation; e.g. Co. for Company; Inc. for Incorporated; Ltd. for Limited.;and S.A. for Société Anonyme; e.g. “DRUG INNOVATION & DESIGN, INC.” or “DRUG INNOVATION AND DESIGN, INCORPORATED”. 19. Laid-Open Applications The Patent Office Record of March 28, 2000 contains laid-open applications from March 5, 2000 - March 11, 2000. 19. Demandes Canadiennes mises à la disponibilité du public Ce numéro de la Gazette des brevets du Canada contient les demandes disponibles au public pour consultation pour la période du 5 mars 2000 - 11 mars 2000.
