Title A name given to the resource Ephemera Collection Description An account of the resource In 2009, BBRM staff and volunteers began the archiving of this collection, with the arranging of objects chronologically (1935 – 1995) and the purchasing of proper archival storage materials. In 2011, an oral finding aid with provenance was constructed by conversations between University of Alabama School of Library and Information Studies (UA SLIS) volunteer Lindsey Reynolds (now at University of Georgia, Athens Library) and BBRM Director Bob Friedman. In 2013 and 2014, those interviews were transcribed by UA SLIS volunteer Michael Mitchell (known affectionately as the MMT). For each object, the original finding aid conversation has been added and can be found in quotes in the description section. As of the most recent online uploading in August, 2019, the Ephemera Collection consisted of eight boxes containing 413 folders with approximately 850 files, spanning the period 1935-1989. Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading. Examples include books, letters, dissertations, poems, newspapers, articles, archives of mailing lists.

Title A name given to the resource The Southernaires' Hymns for Male Quartet Description An account of the resource Box 1 Folder 17: "Box 1 folder 16, pardon me 17. It’s another group of sheet music songs. A hymnal grouping from 1943, the Southernaires, a vocal group. It was the Southernaires, a vocal quartet, an old vocal quartet and they were apparently well known throughout the country but they also did perform in Birmingham and it’s a folder of the songs that they performed. The back cover has a picture of the Golden Gate Quartet from that period, and this was found in a thrift store somewhere by Bob Friedman." 1940s Leeds Music Corporation Music Southernaires Spencer Odom The Golden Gate Quartette
