One million digital pages of Utah historical newspapers

The Utah Digital Newspapers project celebrated the upload of its one-millionth page on Monday, July 19, 2010, with a brief program at the J. Willard Marriott Library at the University of Utah. For the curious, page number 1,000,000 is the sports page (page 9) of the September 19, 1916, issue of the Salt Lake Herald-Republican, at http://udn.lib.utah.edu/cdm4/document.php?CISOROOT=/slh13&CISOPTR=428.
