However, even assuming that the content of the reference was written with the intent to be read by “an outside audience” (Ans. 25) as the Examiner states, the Examiner has not adequately demonstrated that the reference itself was publicly accessible. For example, the Examiner has not demonstrated that the Norman reference was catalogued and shelved in a meaningful way (In re Bayer, 568 F.2d 1357, 1361 (Fed. Cir. 1978); In re Cronyn, 890 F.2d 1158, 1161 (Fed. Cir. 1989)), was actually disseminated without restriction (Massachusetts Institute of Technology v. AB Fortia, 774 F.2d 1104, 1109 (Fed. Cir. 1985)), or was such that “anyone could have had access to the [Norman reference] by the exercise of reasonable diligence” (Northern Telecom, Inc. v. Datapoint Corporation, 908 F.2d 931, 937 (Fed. Cir. 1990); In re Wyer, 655 F.2d 221, 226 (CCPA 1981)).
