Newbie Q: Does Create Index Lock Table?

Sorry for this newbie question, but I'm just starting to learn about being an Oracle DBA.

I want to create a bitmap index on a table. Will Oracle lock the table against selects while this is running? If it does, is there a way to prevent it from doing this in 8.0.5?

TIA, revoohc
