Simard-Normandin, M. ; Kronberg, P. P. ; Button, S. Abstract The rotation measures of 555 extragalactic radio sources are calculated as a result of a large number of new linear polarization measurements carried out at several wavelengths. A summary of references for previous polarization measurements is included, and the procedure for optimizing the number of unambiguous rotation measures is described.
