Abstract
Legacy Observing Programs at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope are designed to establish databases that can be used by all astronomers. As part of my research, I am involved in a number of the major legacy projects at the JCMT. I will discuss what types of projects are currently being done and what sort of results the community might look forward to in the future.
