The Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) surveyed approximately 96% of the sky in four infrared wavelength bands centered at 12, 25, 60, and 100 um. The IRAS data are presented in catalogs of point sources and small extended sources (<8') as well as in atlases of low resolution spectra and sky-brightness images. The Cataloged Galaxies and Quasars Observed in the IRAS Survey, hereafter referred to as the "Extragalactic Catalog", is the subset of those point source data pertaining to previously known galaxies and quasars. It is intended as a readily accessible compilation of IRAS data for objects appearing in the most widely-used extragalactic catalogs. The Extragalactic Catalog contains 11,444 IRAS point sources (IRAS Point Source Catalog, Version 2.0) that can be positionally associated with catalogued galaxies and quasars, including association information of point sources with sources from the IRAS Small Scale Structure Catalog. Section II summarizes important aspects of the IRAS mission and the data processing techniques. Section III describes the organisation of the Extragalactic Catalog and the way in which the associations were made with the various galaxy catalogs. Section IV describes the information given for each entry in the Extragalactic Catalog. Section V presents some preliminary statistics on the contents of the Extragalactic Catalog. Acknowledgments and References are given in Sections VI and VII. The catalog itself comprises Section VIII. Some notes and errata are given in Sections IX and X. A printed and a tape version of the Extragalactic Catalog are available. (2 data files).
