`
`Declaration of Joseph Kiegel in Support of
`Petition for Inter Partes Review of U.S. Patent No. 8,677,494
`
`1, Joseph A. Kiegel, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am employed at
`
`the University of Washington Libraries
`
`(“UWL”) and my current title is Head, Cataloging and Metadata Services. I
`
`have served in this capacity since July 2012 at the UWL. Before that I was
`
`Head, Monographic Services Division, and in the period of May, 1995 to
`
`September, 1998 I was Head of the Cataloging Division at the UWL.
`
`I have
`
`worked for the UWL for almost 32 years. A I am more than twenty—one years
`
`of age, and I make this declaration based on my own personal knowledge,
`

`Symantec v. Finjan
`
`

`
`experience, and belief. If called upon, I can testify competently to the facts
`
`stated in this declaration.
`
`2.
`
`The UWL is the premier academic ‘ library in the Pacific
`
`Northwest. Its mission is to advance intellectual discovery and enrich quality
`
`of life by connecting people with knowledge. The UWL is an Online
`
`Computer Library Center (OCLC) participating institution;
`
`3.
`
`I am fully familiar with UWL cataloging and shelving practices, .
`
`including the ones that would have been followed in, and the period
`
`surrounding, December 1995.
`
`'
`
`4.
`
`Attached hereto as Exhibit Symantec 1026 is a true and correct
`
`copy of the Proceedings of the Fifth International Virus Bulletin Conference,
`
`September 20-22, Boston, MA (the “Virus Bulletin Proceedings,”) which is
`
`held and maintained by the UWL in its Engineering Library.
`
`1 inspected
`
`Syrnantec Exhibit 1026 and verified that it matched and corresponded to the
`
`contents of the Virus Bulletin Proceedings which is held and maintained by
`
`the UWL.
`
`5.
`
`To the best of my knowledge, in or about December 1995, titles
`
`that were acquired by the UWL, including the Virus Bulletin Proceedings,
`
`were cataloged in the main library in my department. This includes creating
`
`OOOOO2
`
`000002
`
`

`
`a MARC record for a particular title in OCLC and transferring that record to
`
`the UWL computer catalog" system. Titles that were catalogued by the UWL
`
`main library, including the Virus Bulletin Proceedings, were subsequently
`
`prepared for shelving "(including a call number label and a property stamp in
`
`black ink reading “University of "Washington Libraries”) and sent to‘ the
`
`holding library where they are shelved. With respect to the Virus Bulletin
`
`Proceedings, the holding library is the Engineering Library which is a branch
`
`' of the UWL. At that time, the Engineering Library had a practice of date
`
`stamping materials upon receipt from the main library. A date stamp of
`
`December 9, 1995 appears on the table of contents of the Virus Bulletin
`
`Proceedings (applied in blue ink over the property stamp), as can be seen
`
`from Exhibit Symantec 1026 and from the Virus Bulletin Proceedings title
`
`‘ held and maintained by the UWL.
`
`I have specifically discussed the matter of
`
`shelving time with staff in the Engineering Library and been informed that,
`
`at that time, titles were normally shelved within a few days of the date on
`
`that stamp, consistent with normal branch library practice.
`
`6.
`
`In view of the foregoing,
`
`the Virus Bulletin. Proceedings
`
`maintained by the UWL, a true and correct copy of which constitutes Exhibit
`
`Symantec 1026, would have been on the shelf in the Engineering Library
`
`available to the public on or about December 15, 1995.
`
`000003
`
`000003
`
`

`
`t 7.
`
`This is fL11‘lIl’1CI' consistent with the MARC record created by the
`
`UWL, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit Symantec 1011. When a
`
`MARC record is created by the UWL, OCLC automatically supplies the date
`
`of creation of that record.
`
`in this case, the MARC record for the Virus
`
`Bulletin Proceedings which was acquired by the UWL was first created on
`
`December 1, 1995 by a cataloger at the UWL, as evidenced by Exhibit
`
`Symantec 101 1.
`
`8.
`
`Exhibit Symantec
`
`1026 constitutes
`
`a record of
`
`regularly
`
`conducted business activity which was (A) made at or near the time of the
`
`occurrence of the matters set forth by, or from information transmitted by, a
`
`person with knowledge of those matters; (B) kept in the course of the
`
`regularly conducted activity; and (C) made by the regularly conducted
`
`activity as a regular practice.
