As a first step of our open cluster programme a catalogue of proper motions and photographic U, B, V, R magnitudes for stars up to 18 mag within a region centered near Alcyone is presented. The catalogue is based on MAMA measurements of plates taken with Tautenburg and OCA (CERGA) Schmidt telescopes. The photometric survey includes ca. 65000 stars and covers a total field of about 25 square degrees. Proper motions have been obtained for ca. 40000 stars within a central 17 square degree region of this field. For the majority of stars in the survey an accuracy of 0.08 mag and 2 mas/year has been estimated for photometric data and proper motions, respectively. The results of the determination of the Pleiades membership up to 18th magnitude is presented.
