A guide to the official publications collections held within the Cambridge University Libraries.

World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO)

The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) is a self-funding agency of the United Nations. It was set-up in 1967 by a convention signed in Stockholm for the purpose of creating a "global forum for intellectual property services, policy, information and cooperation". Older documents may use the name Organisation Mondiale de la Propriété Intellectuelle (OMPI).
