Scientific paper

We present here the inventory of Potsdam CdC plates stored in the Astrophysical Institute Potsdam (AIP). The Potsdam CdC zone ( +32 to +39 degrees) was divided into 1232 fields. The total number of all CdC plates obtained in Potsdam is about 2160. Only 963 plates (45% of all) are now stored in AIP. The first epoch plates had been obtained during the period July 1893 - August 1902. The second epoch plates (August 1913 - February 1924) can be separated into two time intervals according to the main observer and the observing method used: from August 1913 till July 1914 and from February 1916 - February 1924. Our intension is to give on-line access to the plate information, as well as to the digitized plate images in near future using the EPSON 10000XL flatbed scanner.
