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 WJLD Sales Reports Description An account of the resource Box 1 Folder 36: "We now move to box 1 folder 36 from 1947. These are samples of sales reports from Jim Connolly. He was the WJLD sales manager and I think also the operations manager of the station. He had lots and lots and lots of clients. We have 3 sales reports, one from May 3, 1947, which is obscured a bit but you can make it out, one from June 14, and one from June 21, 1947. All on the beautiful JLD stationary. Also a copy of the WJLD stationary envelope with Connolly’s name on it, which may have contained a paycheck at sometime who knows. I stand corrected. Not all on, let me see...ok its time to really just get your act together Bob. The May 3 sales report is on the back of WJLD stationary, beautiful stationary from Bessemer, Alabama, with its phone number, and its just a really beautiful piece of work. We believe they were supplied by his son and/or wife in the 1990's." 1940s Bessemer Jim Connolly WJLD
