Spectral reflectances and geometric albedos between 2300 and \(3250 \AA\) are determined for 45 asteroids from data acquired by the International Ultraviolet Explorer satellite. The geometric albedos are consistently low, ranging from \(\sim 0.02\) for C-type asteroids to γ0.08 for M-type asteroids.
