The authors have classified 176 IRAS sources as carbon stars based on the presence of the SiC emission feature at 11.2 micron in their low-resolution spectra (LRS). Accurate positions were found by B. Skiff (Lowell Obs.), using visible-light (DSS), 2MASS, and WISE images to identify the carbon stars. Many of the stars are large-amplitude variables, whether designated or not, so sometimes the magnitudes are rounded to a whole magnitude so as to be representative of the brightness. Some notes are added about close companions and two stars where the existing position is significantly in error.
