What this record means
The record shows that “ELSA” is a live Principal Register service mark owned by Elsevier Inc., a Delaware corporation, and it has been registered since March 31 2020. The registration covers Class 041 services—electronic desktop publishing for others in the life‑sciences, physical‑sciences, social‑sciences, technology, engineering, business, health and medicine fields—and Class 042 services—platform‑as‑a‑service and software‑as‑a‑service offerings that support word processing, project management, workflow and communication for authors and publishers in those same scientific and technical areas. A similar name used in connection with publishing‑related software platforms or electronic publishing services would be the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside those fields are farther from the scope shown. The record does not give Elsevier control over every possible use of the word “ELSA.” The most recent meaningful event is the acceptance of the combined Section 8 (six‑year renewal) and Section 15 (ownership) declaration on October 3 2025, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name that touches scientific‑publishing software or services.
