The Index Catalog of Nebulae and Stars is a guide used by astronomers as a sort of map for the heavens. The Index is not a popular book and may be difficult to come across. However there are electronic web downloads available on astronomical sites. Checking out the local library or observatory may prove to be successful as well.
