We wish to express our deepest appreciation to the Utah Academic Library Consortium which has provided funding and assistance with the project from its inception. We also acknowledge funding from the Masonic Foundation of Utah that has enabled us to organize and digitize many of the photographs and documents. Special thanks go to Kenning Arlitsch, Mountain West Digitization Project, University of Utah, for his assistance and guidance; Kayla Willey, Brigham Young University, for her assistance with the metadata and subject headings; Patricia Scott, Utah State Archives, for her assistance in organizing the materials; Krystal Powell, Giovale Library, Westminster College, for her assistance with the metadata and web site development; Student Workers, Giovale Library, Westminster College for their assistance with the metadata; and David A. Hales, Director, Giovale Library, who has been the project manager.

We would also like to express our appreciation to the many individuals who over the years have produced the various photographs and documents and have preserved them. Without their work and efforts, these historical documents would not be available for us today.
