Notes

Abstract: As higher education evolves and redefines how information is exchanged with industry, an increasing number of universities are creating and expanding technology transfer offices to commercialize faculty created intellectual property and promote innovation. This exchange fosters technology-based economic development and entrepreneurial success. Academic librarians at these institutions have a unique opportunity to serve as commercialization partners in these efforts, contributing to the work and creating greater visibility of the library within the campus community. This paper focuses on how the University of North Texas (UNT) Libraries was able to develop a successful partnership with the UNT Office of Innovation and Commercialization (OIC) and move outside the Libraries’ normal sphere of influence to help create a patent internship program for students. The author explains how this innovative partnership works and provides benefits for all parties involved. Best practices will be shared on ways librarians can develop similar initiatives in their own communities.
