The machine readable library as it is currently being distributed from the Astronomical Data Center is described. The library contains digital spectral for 161 stars of spectral classes O through M and luminosity classes 1, 3 and 5 in the wavelength range 3510 A to 7427 A. The resolution is approximately 4.5 A, while the typical photometric uncertainty of each resolution element is approximately 1 percent and broadband variations are 3 percent. The documentation includes a format description, a table of the indigenous characteristics of the magnetic tape file, and a sample listing of logical records exactly as they are recorded on the tape.
