A worldwide community of motivated and well-equipped amateur astronomers is making significant contributions to astronomical research and bringing the amateur and professional communities more closely together than at any time in nearly a century. Efforts range from far-flung networks of comet, asteroid, and planet observers to dedicated teams focusing on such objects as variable stars, binaries, and supernovae. This paper describes several cooperative projects in which Sky Publishing is playing a major role, including an asteroid search competition and a supernova detection program. It also presents the progress of an effort to create a worldwide registry of amateurs and professionals interested in partnering in specific research projects. This project involves Sky Publishing Corporation in partnership with several professional and amateur astronomy organizations.
