Photography at the Burrell Schmidt (1Mar95)
(from KPNO, NOAO Newsletter No. 41, 1 March 1995)

As of 1 August 1995, we will discontinue the availability of photographic
observing at the Burrell Schmidt.  This will apply both to the time scheduled
for Kitt Peak observers and the time for CWRU observers.  This measure is
prompted both by the need to economize and by the decreasing use of the
Burrell Schmidt as a photographic telescope.  We also wish to improve the
performance of the telescope for CCD use by removing the plateholder and
its support structure.
