Beginning with the totals for 2001-2002, we are posting these totals on the AAVSO web site as well as publishing them in the Journal of the AAVSO. For each fiscal year, the following tables are given:

• Table 1 lists the number of observers and the total observational contribution from each Country.
• Table 2 lists the number of observers and the total observational contribution from each USA State or Territory.
• Table 3 is a list of individual observers and gives, for each observer, his or her:
  - AAVSO Observer Initials (one to five alphanumerical characters)
  - A two-digit code indicating affiliation with another variable star observing organization
  - Name and location
  - Number of observations added to the AAVSO International Database
  - Number of inner sanctum observations made during the year (an inner sanctum is a positive observation of magnitude 13.8 or fainter, or a "fainter-than" observation of fainter than 14.0 or fainter).
  Please note that at the end of Table 3, a list is given of variable star observing organizations that observers have requested their affiliation with be indicated.

These tables are in Adobe PDF format. The Adobe PDF format requires the Acrobat reader plug-in. Most new browser packages come with this built-in. However, if yours does not, then you can download it for free from the adobe website.
