In the paper entitled "A Catalog of Absorption in the Spectra of Quasi- stellar Objects" by V. Junkkarinen, A. Hewitt, & G. Burbidge (ApJS, 77,203(1991]) there is an error in Table l. Because of an error in the computer program used to generate the final version of Table 1, the J2000 coordinates for all the objects are incorrect. The error involves the printed values for the J2000 seconds of time in right ascension and the J2000 seconds of arc in declination. The following table gives corrected J2000 coordinates for all the objects in Table 1 of our paper. Table 1 should be consulted for the 1950 coordinates and to check for coordinates which are poorly known. The J2000 coordinate names in Table 1 are correct (except that a few may change as more accurate coordinates become available for those QSOs with poorly determined coordinates), and the B1950 coordinates and coordinate names are not affected by the programming error. Additional corrections: In Table 3, 1040+015 should be QNB1:49, not QNB1:22. Two references were omitted (the numbers appear in Table 1, but the references are not listed): 1720.

B., Smith, H. E., and Wilkes, B. J. 1989, ApJ, 344,567. We would like to thank Marion Schmitz (IPAC) for pointing out the missing references and QNB1:49.
