We have generated far-UV stellar libraries using spectra of hot stars in the Galaxy and the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. These libraries were implemented into the stellar population synthesis codes starburst99 and lavalsb and used to compute synthetic spectra of star-forming galaxies. Model spectra for galaxies are presented and variations of the hot star photospheric and wind profiles are discussed. This poster summarizes the work of Robert et al. (2002).
