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.

Title A name given to the resource Report, "WJLD Exhibit 1, Engineering Data, Johnson Broadcasting Company, WJLD 250W, 1KW-LS 1340 KC, Homewood Alabama, Docket 13541, BP-12559" Description An account of the resource Box 4 Folder 5: "This is folder number 5, is a manual for the Johnston Broadcasting Company for WJLD Homewood from about 1960, October of ’60 and its engineering data on the tower. This is probably something that was put together for the FCC because they are proposing that 1400 AM (kilocycles) increases its power from 250 watts to 1 kilowatt in this proposal. And the proposal is dated October of 1960. Found in the WJLD files. We've included their presentation as well but not the maps. They had to make an argument that a 1K would not interfere with other stations on or around 1400 AM, They had to "protect" WJHO Opelika, WXAL Demopolis, WMSL Decatur, WFPA Fort Payne, WLAQ Rome, GA, and WHAL Shelbyville, TN." 1960s Johnson Broadcasting Company WJLD
