Schedule Description

Documents created by the agency, including pamphlets, reports, leaflets, file manuals, annual reports, other published or processed documents, and the last manuscript report, if not published, relating to management projects.

Scope and Content

To commemorate the Utah statehood centennial, the Division of State History published a series of articles with highlights from Utah's history in The History Blazer: News of Utah's Past. During 1995, twenty were released each month while 1996 saw fifteen each month. A variety of topics and people were featured from across the nearly one hundred and fifty years of both the territory and state's history.

Notes

Numerous individuals articles are missing from the Deseret News set, along with all of January thru October 1995 and January and February 1996. A second set maintained by partner Utah Statehood Centennial Commission appears to be much more complete. Yet another set from original binders, immediate source of acquisition unknown, appears to be completed except for December 1996 articles.
