Of the present wide-field multicolor survey's 130 new quasars, fully 100 lie at redshifts above 2.2, and 49 lie above 3.0; spectra, coordinates, redshifts, broadband magnitudes, line-equivalent Ly-alpha/N V widths, and continuum spectral indices, are presented for all newly detected quasars. A complete sample is derived by combining the 96 rigidly-selected quasars of Warren et al. (1991) with 14 previously known quasars in one of the fields presently studied. This complete sample contains at least five broad absorption-line quasars. Spectra of a total of 473 multicolor-selected candidates have thus far been obtained.
