An observing programme was started in the summer of 1977 to measure radial velocities of red giants in open clusters with the spectrovelocimeter “Coravel” (Baranne et al. 1979) attached to the 1 m telescope of the Geneva Observatory installed at the O.H.P. (France). 750 measurements for 160 stars in 30 open clusters north of −20°, with ages ranging from those of NGC 752 to Pleidades, have been obtained. The limiting magnitude is B = 12.5.
