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 FCC Request for Location Change, WJLD Description An account of the resource Box 6 Folder 11: "Ok, folder 11 is part of an FCC request changing the location of the station from Homewood to Fairfield, at the Garrison, and the antennae is now moved from… the transmitter location is now at Garrison Avenue which is where it currently is. Ok, let’s pause for a sec…. We’re continuing with this. The station, WJLD was located at this time, the studios, at 109 North 19th Street. They are now moving the tower, which was originally on Red Mountain at this time as well, to Garrison Avenue. So the transmitter location is changing, and therefore… and the antennae is therefore being moved, but at this very moment it is not clear that the studio is being moved at all. The studio is still at 109 North 19th Street. That’s what this does, and accompanying this is a broadcast map showing the difference in 25 millivolt contours by virtue of the move, so the strength now moves to the west which would have been an appropriate thing to do since there were more African Americans in that area I think. Ok, it might be. City of license will change from Homewood to Fairfield. From the WJLD files." 1970s Fairfield FCC Homewood Red Mountain WJLD
