Title:

The network:

The esp@cenet network is a collection of interlinked Web Sites, which enables users to search for information in patent documents by using the bibliographic information that can be found on the front pages of patent documents published around the world.

Searches can be performed by entering simple search criteria in an easy to use search form to obtain a simple list of patent publications as result.

For every listed patent publication, it is possible to view the bibliographic details, the abstract, full text and images of a document (whichever is available) by clicking on the patent number in the results list.
