Below is a sortable list of historical {{PAGENAME}}, compiled November, 2013. It provides: 1) links to online copies before 1950's; and libraries where hard copies can be found


Note: This list of existing newspapers was first generated from ''Chronicling America's'' "US Newspaper Directory, 1690–present"<ref>Library of Congress ''[http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/search/titles/results/?state=Utah&amp;county=Beaver&amp;city=&amp;year1=1690&amp;year2=2012&amp;terms=&amp;frequency=&amp;language=&amp;ethnicity=&amp;labor=&amp;material_type=&amp;lccn=&amp;rows=20 Chronicling America]'', accessed March 7, 2012</ref>. It is quite comprehensive, although additional newspapers may be found in [[Utah Newspapers#Resources_for_Utah_Newspapers|Utah repositories]]. Please add newspapers as you find them.  
The newspapers are listed by the area they served, so some may have been published in other counties or even out of state.
 
{{FYI|Newspapers have increasingly come online starting in the late 1980's.
