Star Charts, list of DSO's to search for. I use a website
www.tonightssky.com
where you can enter your location, planned observing times, preferred object types, magnitude, etc, and print out a list of objects on show with celestial location in RA/Dec or in Alt/Az if preferred.
Clear skies and enjoy!
