At the Astronomical Observatory of Leningrad State University two observational programs of investigation of lacertids - photographic photometry and photoelectric polarimetry - are in progress for many years. Some results for OJ 287 and BL Lac are of interest: (1) existence of preferable direction of polarization, (2) correlations between the brightness and polarization parameters, and (3) high degree of polarization (~50%) of individual sources responsible for variability.
