Which patent search tool should I use? Why not just use Google? Part 4 in Patent Searching Basics.

Part of the MIT Libraries video tutorial series. This is part 4 in a 4-part series on patent searching basics. Learn about four free online patent search tools: Google Patents, freepatentsonline.com, esp@cenet and the United States Patent and Trademark Office database (USPTO). PLEASE NOTE: the Google Patents database has changed significantly since this video was made - the video will be updated soon to reflect the changes.
