We describe the preparation of charts and positions for 1035 cool red giant carbon stars discovered by the authors in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Not considered here are Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) carbon stars, nor the M-type giants found in the LMC and SMC (Blanco et al. 1980, Blanco & McCarthy 1983). Charts of the C stars discovered are available in three formats: (a) 12 charts contain 186 C stars discovered in three central LMC regions (Blanco et al. 1980); (b) charts of C and late M stars in 52 LMC regions; these charts will not be published but are available from the authors (Blanco & McCarthy 1983, discussion); and (c) charts for 849 individual C stars in 49 regions of LMC (Blanco & McCarthy 1990).
