Several series of celestial reference frames have been produced during the past few years as part of VLBI geodynamic programs. They consist in coordinates of 20 to 150 extragalactic radio sources with a precision at the level of 0.001″. The relative orientations of these frames and the evolution of each series of catalogs are studied.
