A variable stars analysis computer program archive

A library site for the storage of computer programs used in the analysis of variable stars has recently been set up. It is directly accessible across the computer networks, using standard procedures. Currently only a few programs for the analysis of the light curves of eclipsing binaries are stored at the site, although it is hoped that as the library becomes more well known, more investigators will deposit copies of their programs in it. This would result in a library where interested researchers could obtain the latest versions of analysis techniques from a comprehensive listing. Instructions for access to the site are also discussed.
