Paper Abstract
Assessing the impact of astronomical facilities rests upon an evaluation of the scientic discoveries which their
data have enabled. Telescope bibliographies, which link data products with the literature, provide a way to use
bibliometrics as an impact measure for the underlying observations. In this paper we argue that the creation
and maintenance of telescope bibliographies should be considered an integral part of an observatory's operations.
We review the existing tools, services, and work
ows which support these curation activities, giving an estimate
of the eort and expertise required to maintain an archive-based telescope bibliography.
