Light curves of 66 new variable stars discovered by the Semi-Automatic Variability Search are presented. We report on discovery of 23 eclipsing binaries, 5 regular pulsating stars, 14 semi-regular variables, and 24 irregular ones among the others.
Observations were collected between January 2006 and April 2007 while monitoring selected 15 fields (4 x 6 deg wide) spread in the sky between declination +20 deg and +75 deg. In a total area of 360 square degrees about 79000 stars brighter than 14 mag were observed in near-Johnson V band.
The variability of all variables was verified with the photometric data extracted from Northern Sky Variability Survey.
