The Las Campanas Redshift Survey

The Las Campanas Redshift Survey (LCRS) consists of 26418 redshifts of galaxies selected from a CCD-based catalog obtained in the

. Essential features of the galaxy selection and redshift measurement methods are described and tabulated here. These details are important for subsequent analysis of the LCRS data. Two dimensional representations of the redshift distributions reveal many repetitions of voids, on the scale of about 5000 km~s
