We present the status of the BeSS database, which contains a catalogue of all known classical Be stars and a large collection of their spectra obtained at any wavelength, any epoch, and from various sources, from amateur astronomer spectra to professional high-resolution high signal-to-noise echelle spectra. Efficient data retrieval in such a heterogeneous data collection is possible with a wide range of selection criteria thanks to their storage in the fits format and via a web interface (http://basebe.obspm.fr) as well as via the Virtual Observatory. BeSS already contains over 49000 spectra and has allowed the detection of several outbursts.
