Safeguarding Old and New Journal Tables for the VO: Status for Extragalactic and Radio Data
Independent of established data centers, and partly for my own research, since 1989 I have been collecting the tabular data from over 2600 articles concerned with radio sources and extragalactic objects in general. Optical character recognition (OCR) was
