cds-question@unistra.frquasarsvisible-astronomysloan-photometryredshiftedIn this paper we present the first results of a deep spectroscopic survey of faint quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Southern Survey, a deep survey carried out by repeatedly imaging a 270{deg}^2^ area. Quasar candidates were selected from the deep data with good completeness over 0<z<5 and 2-3mag fainter than the SDSS main survey. Spectroscopic follow-up was carried out on the 6.5m MMT with Hectospec. The preliminary sample of this SDSS faint quasar survey (SFQS) covers ~3.9{deg}^2^, contains 414 quasars, and reaches g=22.5.2006AJ....131.2788Jhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/131/2788CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toVII/243 : SDSS quasar catalog.
