The 2010 Oxford Journals Policy Collection<http://oxfordjournals-marketing.oup.com/c/12AQkMsIvUb50sOAC>features 38 highly cited and prestigious journals from a range of disciplines relevant to those working in the policy sector. Recently launched, this new collection allows users in this area to access a tailored journals package covering the fields of economics, law, public health, politics, and social sciences. Many of the titles included are published in collaboration with learned societies and other international organizations, and thus represent the forefront of research.

Re: [LIS-Forum] UGC opts INFLIBNET to host National PhD Theses Repository
by Bukhari 28 Jul '09

28 Jul '09

Dear Dr. Poluru, Scholars interested in patenting their work can at least file a provisional application before submitting their thesis. They can file a more refined application (the complete specification) within 12 months from the date of filing of provisional application. Novelty will not be lost. Filing a provisional application is very simple and can be filed by the scholars themselves without incurring much cost. They may even chose to publish articles coming out of their thesis without losing the novelty of their idea once a prov appln has been filed. It must also be kept in mind that presentation of the work in seminar/conferences will also be novelty destroying if done before filing the application for patent, although there are few exceptions.

Bukhari Sr. Executive IPR Shantha Biotechnics On Mon, 27 Jul 2009 12:12:58 +0530 wrote >Dear Professional Colleagues, > >Hosting full text M.Phil/Ph.D. theses is a dream coming true for Librarians. This move will no doubt have a lot of impact on accessibility, quality of research, and avoiding duplication of research, but what if some scholars want to publish their work after submitting their theses, especially if they want to patent their work. In that case how can they submit their theses within 30 days period? > >Can experts provide any solution to this problem?
