Astronomy. How do I figure out what star is at a certain point?

Does anyone know what star is at 3h 8m 17.8s; DEC=40 degrees, 57' 52.4';? Supposedly this is a well known star and is eclipsed sometimes. Can anyone help with this? Thanks.Astronomy. How do I figure out what star is at a certain point?
1) National Astronomy websites might allow you to plot that star.





2) Using a star chart might do it... The north star never moves in the sky...line up on that.
