Weber County (Utah). Library

These records document the Mount Fort Branch Library in Ogden. In 1916, the Parent Teachers Association (PTA) of the Mound Fort School unsuccessfully attempted to establish a branch library in north Ogden. A library committee was organized in 1918/19 and books were assembled at the North Junior High School in 1919 and opened to the public during the evenings and summer months. The Ogden city commission provided limited funding and the library was as largely staffed by volunteers. Although as early as 1922 attempts were made turn to the library over to the Carnegie Free Library it was not accomplished until 1932. These records include a library history, board minutes, and financial records.
