Abstract
Recent data on charmonium production in B-meson decays suggest that charmonium hybrid mesons with mass ~4 GeV may be produced in B-decay via c\bar{c} colour octet operators. Some of these states are likely to be narrow with clean signatures to J/\psi pi^+ pi^- final states. Experimental signatures and search strategies for existing B-factories are described.
Comments: references added and some of the text rewritten so it is clearer
