RE: Trademark Surveys

IMHO, $50.00 per year is a small price to pay for current, accurate
information, particularly if it is frequently relied-upon resource by
practicing IP attorneys. Companies invest incredible resources in
developing brands, just as much and even more in promoting and protecting
the brand's corresponding trademarks.
 
While paying $50.00 per year for this title in a firm that has a moderate IP
business might not be right, I gather that IP botiques and corporate legal
departments in brand-conscious companies are willing to pay the price.
 
I say this because my SO is in brand management, and I know the extent to
which his company would go in any matters pertaining to their brands and
trademarks!

How soon would a book on how to do trademark surveys becomes outdated?
Maybe they are "discontinuing" it because it doesn't require updating and no

one will buy the $50 pocket part.

West Group has informed us that they are discontinuing the publication of
"Trademark Surveys" by Phyllis J. Welter. This is a "how-to" book on
designing, conducting, and opposing trademark surveys and is used often by
our intellectual property attorneys. Does anyone know of a publication that

we might look at that could replace this book? We already have a
subscription to McCarthy on Trademarks and Unfair Competition, but would
like something that is more in-depth. Thank you.
