The Lisburn Standard, referred to simply as The Standard, was a weekly newspaper based in Lisburn, Northern Ireland.[1] It was established in 1878, and served the communities of Lisburn, Lambeg, Dunmurry and the surrounding areas of County Antrim.[2] It was issued every Friday evening.[3] It reported on local events and updates, as well as global news, such as WWI and WWII.[4][5][6]

The newspaper dissolved in May 1959. The Lisburn Standard was digitized and added to the British Newspaper Archive in June 2020.[7]
