Miller F. Whittaker Library Patent & Trademark Resource Center

The Patent & Trademark Resource Center (PTRC) at South Carolina State University is located on the first floor of the Miller F. Whittaker Library. The PTRC provides access to:

• Patent & trademark books as well as brochures sent to us by the USPTO
• Trained staff here to answer your questions about patent and trademark research

While PTRC staff do not conduct patent and trademark searches, we can provide instruction on the search process to individuals, groups, and classes.  Appointments are recommended.
