We present new chemical abundance measurements of 16 damped Lya systems atz>1.5 and update our previous abundance analyses. The entire database presentedhere was derived from HIRES observations on the Keck I telescope, reduced withthe same software package, and analysed with identical techniques. Altogether,we present a large, homogeneous database of chemical abundance measurements forprotogalaxies in the early universe, ideal for studying a number of importantaspects of galaxy formation. In addition, we have established an onlinedirectory for this database and will continuously update the results.
