We present the results of high resolution spectroscopic observations of Li I resonance doublet at λ 6707.8 Å for fast rotating single stars of luminosity class II and Ib. We present a discussion on the link between rotation and Li content in intermediate mass giant stars, with emphasis on their evolutionary status. At least one of the observed stars, HD 232862, a G8II with an unusual vsini of 20 km/s, present a Li-rich behavior.
