We present a catalog of 30 QSOs and their spectra, in the square degree ofsky centered on the northern Hubble Deep Field. These QSOs were selected bymulticolor photometry and subsequently confirmed with spectroscopy. They rangein magnitude from 17.6 < B < 21.0 and in redshift from 0.44 < z < 2.98. We alsoinclude in the catalog an AGN with redshift z=0.135. Together, these objectscomprise a new grid of absorption probes which can be used to study thecorrelation between luminous galaxies, non-luminous halos and Lyman-alphaabsorbers along the line of sight toward the Hubble Deep Field.Comment: 22 pages including figures; AJ, in pres
