A catalog of gamma-ray sources based on photons with energies greater than1 GeV has been developed from observations taken by the EGRET instrumentofthe Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. The data are taken from the 4.5 years ofobservation available in the public data archive. We emphasize sources which aredetected using the entire database without regard to any possible transientorvariablebehavior. Ten of the 57 sources reported here have not previously been reported inthe catalogs developed...
