The spectral energy distribution (SED) of quasars were constructed by collecting WISE, UKIDSS, and GALEX photometric data in addition to SDSS, from which the IR luminosity at 1-7 \\mu m and bolometric luminosity at 1100 \\AA - 1 \\mu m were calculated. A red tail is clearly seen in the distributions of the spectral index in 1100 \\AA - 1 \\mu m both for high-z and low-z sources, which is likely due to red or reddened quasars.
