Spectra of resolution λ/Δλ∼2 ×104 and good S:N ratio are presented in the range containing the 7Li doublet at 6707 Å for 9 main sequence or slightly evolved stars in NGC 752 (age ∼2 ×109 years). We investigate the suggested main sequence bimodality using spectroscopic indications of binarity and high rotational velocity, as well as the Li abundance to supplement previous photometry.
