Description

We present an empirical investigation of the colors of quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometric system. The sample studied includes 2625 quasars with SDSS photometry: 1759 quasars found during SDSS spectroscopic commissioning and SDSS follow-up observations on other telescopes, 50 matches to FIRST quasars, 573 matches to quasars from the NASA Extragalactic Database, and 243 quasars from two or more of these sources. The quasars are distributed in a 2.5{deg} wide stripe centered on the celestial equator covering ~529deg^2^. Positions (accurate to 0.2") and SDSS magnitudes are given for the 898 quasars known prior to SDSS spectroscopic commissioning.
