The emblem of IEEE will be
protected by legal registration. The
guidelines for the use of the emblem and "IEEE"
are set forth under Section 6 of the IEEE
Policies, and the emblem and "IEEE" shall be
used only in connection with official business
of the IEEE. The IEEE emblem is a trademark
owned by the IEEE for the purpose of
indicating membership in the IEEE. As
owner of the mark, IEEE Headquarters makes
available to members membership pins which
bear the mark. IEEE Headquarters also
makes available to Sections, Societies, and
other IEEE organizational units, letterheads,
pennants, and other similar material bearing
the emblem. Any form of use of the
emblem by members, either as individuals or as
IEEE organizational units, which is not
supplied by the IEEE Headquarters must be
submitted for approval and any form of use
which has not received such approval shall be
considered as unauthorized use of the
emblem. The United States Patent Office
has issued Registration No. 770,113 to IEEE
for the emblem. When used by members
either as individuals or as IEEE
organizational units, the emblem must be
displayed with an R in a circle as shown
above. This is required to give legal
notice that the emblem has been registered by lEEE.
The IEEE emblem may be incorporated in the
design of awards, or for similar purposes,
provided that the total emblem is used without
any modification. If the emblem is
modified in any manner, including the addition
of names or dates within the field of the
emblem, the basic IEEE registration will have
been violated. The IEEE's legal counsel
urges that we maintain the integrity of the
IEEE emblem.
Purchase of Emblem. Emblems to be
worn by members are to be purchasable only from
