Originally proposed as Wasatch Review,[2] the periodical became Brigham Young University Studies and was first printed in January 1959, as an issue of Brigham Young University Bulletin printed by BYU Press.[3]

Since its beginning, BYU Studies presented itself as a voice for the community of LDS scholars.[3]
