We present the results of a survey of archival data and catalogued objects in the region around the Hubble Deep Field-South (HDF-S). The survey encompasses NASA mission logs, astronomical catalogs, and published journal tables. The HDF-S was the focus of a dedicated HST observing campaign during October 1998. Many astrophysically interesting objects in the vicinity of the HDF-S, including quasars and clusters of galaxies, have been catalogued and observed at a wide range of wavelengths. The byproducts of this and similar user-selected surveys can be used to study classes of objects that may potentially be represented among the faint objects discovered within the HDF-S. For example: information can be obtained about the large-scale structure of galaxy clustering in this region and subsequent predictions can be made with regard to the expected redshift distribution of faint extragalactic sources within the HDF-S. This survey was conducted using a suite of new data search, browse, and visualization tools available at the NASA ADC (Astronomical Data Center: http://adc.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ).
