  We present a library of 6410 synthetic spectra with resolution Lambda/dLambda
= 250,000 based on the revised Kurucz 1993 model atmospheres. The library
covers the wavelength range 3000 - 10,000 AA with 54 values of effective
temperature in the range 5250 - 50,000 K, 11 values of log surface gravity
between 0.0 and 5.0 and 19 metallicities in the range -5.0 to 1.0. We find
that, with a few caveats, the library compares well with both the original 20
AA Kurucz spectra and also with observed spectra. The library is intended for
use in population synthesis and physical parameterisation of stellar spectra.
We assess the suitability of the library for these tasks.
