Note: The astronomers request continued observations to ascertain whether or not the eclipse is completely over. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 6 April 2021

Reminder: High-resolution spectroscopy (10,000 or higher) is needed. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 1 February 2021

Note: This Alert Notice was revised from its original text to correct a misinterpretation of the request from Dr. Echevarria, to update the recent observations, and to update the status of scheduled HST observations. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 2 April 2020

Note: Please continue observations at a cadence of 1 observation per week until further notice. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, July 6, 2021
Please continue observations at a cadence of 1 observation per week at least through 2021 June 15. See the post by Principal Investigator Dariusz Kubicki in the forum threads for this campaign (URLs below). - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 2020 June 29
The eclipse of EE Cep has occurred but continued monitoring is requested to establish post-eclipse behavior. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 2020 May 21
Note: Continued observations, particularly in B, V, and visual, are needed now and through the coming year. R Aqr is presently approaching solar conjunction and observations are very difficult, but they are extremely important as R Aqr is also approaching minimum. Please observe as long as possible now and pick up again as soon after conjunction as possible. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 1 February 2021
Note: The Chandra observations took place, and Dr. Karovaska requests continued monitoring of V694 Mon (MWC 560) until further notice. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 17 April 2020
Observations of V694 Mon are scheduled for 11 March 2020 with HST, and for 22 March 2020 with XMM. Please continue to observe as indicated below but with the high-intensity coverage taking place March 9 through March 14 and March 19 through March 25. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 6 March 2020
Note: Principal Investigator Ernst Pollmann particularly requests higher-resolution (at least 10000) spectra of gam Cas. - Elizabeth O. Waagen, 21 May 2020
