Workshop of the Telescopes is a 2-disc compilation album by the American band Blue Öyster Cult, released by Sony Music/Columbia Entertainment in 1995. All of the material on this album was recorded prior to the Imaginos sessions; some of it was previously only available on promo discs (marked (*)), and a few others were previously unavailable on CD (marked (+)).

The CD comes with an explanatory booklet outlining the development of Blue Öyster Cult and their rise to fame throughout the 1970s and 1980s.

The album served as a basis of the double-disc reissue of The Essential Blue Öyster Cult in 2012, sharing 21 tracks, substituting some tracks with their live counterparts.

Some of these songs were later included on the remastered editions of BÖC's studio albums.

The album is a compilation encompassing Blue Öyster Cult from the early 1970s to 1986. It does not include material from 1988's Imaginos
