Using an extension of the method for compacting atomic data set out by \cite[Burgess & Tully (1992)]{bur92}, we make concise fits to a selection of the set of collision strengths {sl Omega } given by \cite[Zhang et al. (1990)]{zha90} for Li-like ions from O(+5) to U(+89) . We carry out thermal averaging and fit the resulting effective collision strengths {sl Upsilon }. A compact 5x5 or 4x4 table of cardinal values for each transition allows one to reproduce the T and Z dependent {sl Upsilon } to better than 1 per cent. The present study is for the forbidden transitions 2s -> 3s,4s,5s and 2s -> 3d,4d,5d. Appendix available on the on-line version of A\&AS.
