The BIBLIOGRAPHIC METEOR DATABASE
---------------------------------


The BIBLIOGRAPHIC METEOR DATABASE is vailable on the WWW now at

http://www.imodot net/bib/bibindex.html.

Almost 10000 articles, books, and notes about meteors and
related topics are stored in the database, dating from 1794
to 1998. The web page allows you to search through the files
by a tree of keywords, an authors index and an input mask
for direct character string searches in titles, authors, and
keywords. Note that the topics you search for may not be 
present in the title; this is why a tree of keywords was
created in

http://www.imodot net/bib/bibindex.html,

which satisfies your query despite the topic not
being present in the title of the article.

The Bibliographic Meteor Database was created in 1982 by Paul
Roggemans (Belgium), the first computerized version was mainly
made by Ghislain Plesier (Belgium), and the work was continued
by Rainer Arlt (Germany), who are very much indebted to Mr. Dale
(Belgium), Mr. Vanderbecq (Belgium), Jurgen Rendtel (Germany),
Jeff Wodd (Australia), Dr. Alexandra Terentjeva (Russia), Evelyne
Blomme (France), Ludwig Cluyse (Belgium), Albert de Kersgieter
(Belgium), Dirk Laurent (Belgium), Jean Meeus (Belgium), Ann
Schroyens (Belgium), Christian Steyaert (Belgium), Sabine Bohmer
(Germany), and Manuela Trenn (Germany) for their help and support. 

I would be most grateful for any comments, suggestions or
hints on errors.
