Bibliography
A bibliography of articles entered into the data base at the Lunar and Planetary Institute Library from November 1982 through January 1983 is presented. An abstract of each article is given. The subjects covered by the articles include: the motion of the moon and dynamics of the earth-moon system: shape and gravity field of the moon; the physical structure of the moon, its thermal and stress history; the morphology of the lunar surface, the origin and stratigraphy of lunar formations, and mapping of the moon; the chemical composition of the moon, lunar petrology, mineralogy, and crystallography; electromagnetic properties of the moon; the planets; and other objects, including asteroids, comets, meteorites, and cosmic dust.

The role of World Data Centers and the Lunar and Planetary Institute in the international exchange of lunar and planetary data
The success of many lunar and planetary investigations has resulted in the accumulation of a mass of data in a myriad of formats and medias. The application of these data to comparative planetology, origin of the solar system, and potential industrial applications of space has made it necessary for scientists from many disciplines to have access to the data. The collections of these data are so diverse that it is often difficult to select what is needed based on catalog information alone. The Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI) proposes to bring the user and the data together. As a research support organization operated by the Universities Space Research Association, the LPI through its active Visiting Scientist Program, a balanced program of study workshops and topical conferences, and organized and supervised data collections has assisted scientists, educators, and students to review, study, and obtain the data necessary to the pursuit of their research.

A shortcut to the riddle of the moon
The Lunar Data Information Center which serves as a reference and lending collection is described. The Center incorporates such methods as a classification scheme for mission-oriented documentation, sample photo browse files, lunar feature index, and color coding; a computer-based Moon Literature Bibliography provides search capability.

Lunar Data Information Center - A shortcut to the riddle of the moon
The Lunar Data Information Center serves as a reference and lending collection to all those interested in lunar science - researchers, educators, and students, world-wide. Such methods as a classification scheme for mission-oriented documentation, sample photo browse files, lunar feature index, and color coding, have resulted in an unusual user-oriented collection. A computer-based Moon Literature Bibliography provides search capability.

Short guide to lunar sample information
Data pertaining to the collection, processing, and study of lunar samples, and the ways to gain access to that data are described. Data pertaining to the samples includes not only the normally published literature but also NASA and USGS interagency documents, sample processing information, and photography taken from lunar orbit, on the lunar surface, and of samples in the Lunar Receiving Laboratory.
