I had some star chrts... But found a computer, much handier as it showed the whole sky and you can then zoom in to an appropriate level.

I have now got an iPad and a couple of programs , some free....too easy.

The trouble with charts they show everything at once, you're trying to find something in the corner, everything is getting damp and soggy, it sounded good when you bought them, but given modern technology is leaps ahead.... I didn't bother with them

I have , desktop universe, star atlas pro, starry night, star map pro and goskywatch.... Last 2 are iPad apps, the voyager one is also highly recommended, and all are useful on those cold rainy nights
