A program of investigation of globular clusters' structural parameters in nearby galaxies has been initiated at the Rozhen National Observatory, Bulgaria (Spassova and Staneva 1984). Here we report on the projected ellipticities of 88 bright globular clusters in M 31, obtained on plates taken with the 2 m Ritchey-Chretien telescope at Rozhen (16 m focal length, 12″89/mm plate scale over a 1° × 1° field).
