While some may expend their efforts on surveys and discovery of new variable stars, many 'known' variable stars are poorly studied and little more than a one-line entry in a catalog, such as the Gen-eral Catalog of Variable Stars (GCVS). In fact you will find many periodic variable stars in the GCVS that lack a period, epoch, or both. This is an area where the interested amateur can make scientific contributions. With background research and the right tools and strategies, observing time can be very productive when studying these 'little known' variable stars.
