The Catalogue of Nearby Stars, Edition 1969 (Gliese 1969) contains a number of modifications and additions to the 1957 catalog. It should be mentioned that the 1969 edition lists: (1) all 915 stars of the first edition, even though newer parallaxes place some of the stars below the catalog limit; (2) almost all known stars having trigonometric parallaxes or = 0.045 deg, although in some cases the mean values of trigonometric and spectral or photometric parallaxes are or = 0.045 deg. Pleiades stars and the carbon star X Cnc have been omitted; and (3) all stars with mean (resulting) parallaxes or = 0.045 deg. The resulting catalog contains 1529 single stars and systems with a total of 1890 components (not including spectroscopic and astrometric companions). The machine-readable version of the catalog is described. It is intended to enable users to read and process the data without problems or guesswork.
