Context: When observing astronomical objects, we have to deal with extinction (i.e. the absorption and scattering of the emitted radiation by dust and gas between the source and the observer). Interstellar extinction depends on the location of the object and the wavelength. The different extinction laws describing these effects are difficult to estimate for a small sample of stars. Aims: Many sophisticated and automatic methods have recently been developed for estimating astrophysical parameters (age and metallicity, for example) depending on the reddening, which is normally treated as a free parameter within the corresponding estimations. However, many reddening values for stars have been published over the last few decades, most of which include observations in the ultraviolet, which are essential for a good estimation but are essentially no longer taken into account. Methods: We searched the literature through the end of 2022 for published independent reddening values of stellar objects based on various methods that exclude estimates from reddening maps. In addition, we present new reddening estimates based on the classical photometric indices in the Geneva, Johnson, and Strömgren-Crawford systems. These are based on well-established and reliable calibrations. Results: After a careful identification procedure and quality assessment of the data, we calculated the mean reddening values of 157 631 individual available measurements for 97 826 objects. We compared our results with the ones from recent automatic pipeline values, including those from the Gaia consortium. In addition, we chose star cluster members to compare their mean values with estimates for the corresponding aggregates. Within the different references, we find several statistically significant offsets and trends and discuss possible explanations for them. Conclusions: Our new catalogue can serve as a starting point for calibrating and testing automatic tools such as isochrone and spectral energy distribution fitting. Our sample covers the whole sky, including the Galactic field, star clusters, and Magellanic Clouds, and so can be used for a variety of astrophysical studies.
