Classical methods of compiling catalogues of proper motions from catalogues of positions at different epochs and reduction to a rigorously defined homogeneous coordinate-system are reviewed, and the determination of proper motions of numerous stars by photographic differential methods, partly with assumptions on behaviour of faint reference stars, and partly by attachment to reference frames of stars with proper motions known from catalogues is discussed.
