AstronomyLogs.com was created as a extension of the goodwill shared between most of the amateur astronomers I have met since becoming involved in the hobby. The heart of the site are the booklets which I created over the years working on the Astronomical League Observing Programs, and The Lunar Field Atlas.

In each Booklet and Logbook there are pages to record your equipment, list the observing sites you use and a place to give each of those entries an abbreviation. There is also a copy of J. L. E. Dreyer's Astronomical Abbreviations. Using all these abbreviations will allow you to pack a lot of information into your logs in a small amount of space and time. Download a copy of Dreyer's Abbreviations from the Reference page and take it out in the field with you until you're comfortable with using them. To learn more about the Lunar Field Atlas click on that tab above.
