The AAO/UKST Hα Survey should be extended to high Galactic latitude (∣b∣ > 25°) to search for T Tauri stars. The Hα Survey can contribute to a complete inventory of young stellar objects in high-latitude clouds, which will help define the limits of conditions and processes that lead to star formation.
