Compilation, Critical Evaluation and Distribution of Stellar Data [E-Book] : Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union Colloquium No. 35, held at Strasbourg, France, 19–21 August, 1976 / edited by C. Jaschek, G. A. Wilkins.
The principal purpose of IAU Colloquium No. 35 was to discuss those aspects of the techniques of the compilation, evaluation, and distribution of data that are common to astrometry, photometry and spectrometry of stars and stellar systems. In the announcement of the Colloquium, it was suggested that...
