See here for John M. Bernhisel’s assembly of the original Utah Territorial Library. See the comments here for discussion on our plans for linking the titles in this catalog to their Google Books scans – and see here for one section of the catalog that has been almost entirely linked to images (thanks, Researcher, for your work on that section. Edje has made contributions to other sections – and anyone else who is interested in helping, a lot or just a little, is welcome to join the fun. Contact me at keepapitchinindotAOLdotcom.) As each catalog section is posted, the links in all previous posts will be updated so that you can move freely around the catalog.

Any surprises here? What pops out as being of interest?
