Abstract: Compilation of all spectroscopic determinations of projected equatorial rotation velocities of individual stars, members of 7 associations, 27 open clusters and 7 globular clusters, is made. About 3200 V dot sini values are found for 2473 stars. Up to the date we have found 65 papers dealing with V dot sini measurements. Unfortunately, only half of the data contain information about individual errors. For each entry in the catalogue information about method of determination and source reference are presented.

Catalogue is a base for future analysis of evolution of rotation with age for stars of different initial mass.
