Eight high-resolution $(0.002cm-1)$ room-temperature absorption spectra of various isotopes of ozone have been recorded using the Bruker IFS 120 HR Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS)at the University of Denver. The data set included low-pressure (2 to 5 Torr) spectra of $\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">16</mrow>}O3$ alone, ozone enhanced with $\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">18</mrow>}O$, and ozone enhanced with $\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">17</mrow>}O$. A glass cell with path length of 120 cm was used in recording all the spectra, and the useful bandpass was approximately 1990 to $2550cm-1$. The wavelength scales of the spectra have been calibrated with respect to the $\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">12</mrow>}C16O$ 1-0 line positions of $Makiandwellsa$, and determination of line positions, intensities, and assignments is in progress.
