Title: Core List of Astronomy Books
Information: http://ads.harvard.edu/books/clab/ These Core Lists of books in astronomy are intended to assist librarians and collection development librarians in building astrophysics collections. Our list also attempts to serve as a resource for researchers and as a guide to teaching faculty in selecting available course readings. The focus of the list is comprised of seven major categories: Abstracts and Indexes, Atlases and Catalogs, Bibliographies, Directories and Encyclopedias, Handbooks and Yearbooks, Texts and Textbooks. Each category consists of several book titles, and in some instances we have provided internet links to non-profit sites. We have noted books that are out-of-print but still worthy of our profession's consideration.
