With the completion of the transcontinental railroad in northern Utah in 1869, Ogden saw the rise and fall of several dozen newspapers. Because of the short tenure of many of these newspapers, Ogden became known as the "graveyard of Western journalism." The Ogden newspapers available on this webpage are listed below.

Ogden Junction 1879-1881
Ogden Herald 1881-1887
Ogden Standard 1888-1908
Ogden Standard Examiner 1923-1927

Gaps in the collection of the daily Standard are being filled with the semi-weekly version of that paper: Jan-Dec 1889, Jan-Jun 1896, Jan-Jun 1900, Jul-Dec 1905, Jul-Dec 1907

The Utah Digital Newspapers Program would like to extend its most sincere thanks to the Weber County Library for their generous donations and the loan of their original newspapers for the creation of this collection.
