We present here the Beijing Astronomical Observatory Supernova Survey (BAOSS). The motivation and the strategy of the survey are briefly discussed, and the hardware and the software of the system are described. BAOSS started in 1996 and has discovered 40 supernovae (SNe) in four years, thus playing an important role in the search for nearby supernovae. The results of several well-observed SNe discovered by BAOSS, SNe 1996W, 1996cb, 1997br, and 1998S, are reported.
