The BYU Law Library keeps previous versions of the Utah Code, so we’ve built up quite an extensive collection of historical Utah Codes. We have from 1855 to the present. We also have all the Utah Session Laws (all Utah laws compiled in chronological order.)
Kept in the basement floor of the BYU Law Library, the historical Utah Codes can be browsed by law students, attorneys, and the public alike.
Our historical Utah Code collection may be able to help you in your research, even if you can’t come browse them physically in our library. Send a request to reference@law.byu.edu. You must know the exact section you are interested in and what year you would like. Sometimes sections are renumbered, so you need to have the number of the section as it was in the year you would like. A reference librarian will do their best to find your request in our historical Utah Code collection and scan the request and email it to you if it is 10 pages or less. We have to be copyright compliant (so we can’t just scan the entire volume for you), and it could take up to two business days.
