Locating Materials
Most of the Law Library's secondary materials relating to trademarks are located on the 1st Floor in the KF3175-KF3194 call number range. That said, information on trademarks can be found in materials covering intellectual property law, computer law, and similar topical areas. Therefore, researchers may find relevant materials in the broader KF2974-KF3194 call number range.
