"Maps of Dust IR Emission for Use in Estimation of Reddening and CMBR Foregrounds'' by D.J. Schlegel, D.P. Finkbeiner, & M. Davis, ApJ, 500, 525 (20 June 1998), http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~schlegel/

The reddening curve is that of Cardelli, Clayton, and Mathis (1989 ApJ.; 345, 245), including the update for the near-UV given by O'Donnell; (1994, ApJ, 422, 158).
