The September issue of Sky & Telescope (QB1.S536),
beginning in 1987, contains an indexed astronomy resource guide--a
directory of museums, observatories, planetariums, astronomy
clubs, special interest organizations, computer bulletin boards,
telephone hotlines, and dealers and manufacturers, in the United
