Which double stars to observe?

[Josh Wilson]

Albireo is losing is luster for me and I have a small list of about 50 double stars for observing and I have observed all the ones that are visible this time of year. I've observed double stars like Gamma Virginis, Epsilon Lyrae, Zeta Herculis, and a few others in the constellations Hercules, Lyra, and Leo. Does anyone have any suggestions for Double Stars to observe? Specifically in the constellations Cepheus, Altair, Sagittarius, and Scorpius.

The link below will have a list of not only double stars but other interesting objects to observe:

I also bought this book by Sissy Haas which gives alot of info on doubles

I also found this star atlas great for seeking out fainter doubles

Thanks for the great comments.
