J. ; Peterson, B. A. ; Rodgers, A. W. Abstract AP Librae, a violent optical variable similar to BL Lac, is found to have a redshift of z = 0.0486 and to consist of a galaxy with V magnitude of -21.4, and an unresolved, starlike core contributing about 70% of the total light in the V band. The colors of the quasi-stellar core, B - V = +0.3, U - B = -0.6, are typical of QSOs.
