I will present results from a search for dusty early A-type stars in the northern galactic 
plane. Photometric data from the IPHAS H_alpha survey is first used to select a sample of 
galactic A-type stars. This sample is then correlated with data from the Spitzer Space 
Telescope in order to search for 8 microns and 24 microns excesses associated with warm dust 
orbiting the stars. The improved photometric sensitivities of these new galactic surveys 
allow the list of known galactic 'Vega-like' sources to be extended to unexplored optical 
magnitude ranges (13.5< r < 18.5 mags). Only 1% of a sample of 3062 A-type stars with 
available optical to mid-infrared spectral energy distributions showed detectable excesses 
at 8 microns. Searching over 1860 stars observed at 24 microns yielded similar statistical 
results. Only 10 stars have both 8 and 24 micron excesses. These results support the idea 
that warm dust located relatively close to the stars are rare in main sequence systems.
