contents The purpose of this article is to relate coarse cohomology of metric spaces with a more computable cohomology. We introduce a notion of boundedly supported cohomology and prove that coarse cohomology of many spaces are isomorphic to the boundedly supported cohomology. Boundedly supported cohomology coincides with compactly supported Alexander--Spanier cohomology if the space is proper and contractible. Our work generalizes an earlier result of Roe which says that the coarse cohomology is isomorphic to the compactly supported Alexander-Spanier cohomology if the space is uniformly contractible. As an application of our main theorem, we obtain that coarse cohomology of the complement can be computed in terms of Alexander-Spanier cohomology for many spaces.
