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 WJLD / WJLN Building, Red Mountain Description An account of the resource Box 1 Folder 54: "And we are on box number 1 this is folder number 54, which are pictures of the studio and transmitter, we think this is the studio, of WJLD/WJLN where the tower is which (the tower) still exists on Red Mountain. Not sure if this is the studio or if its only the transmitter site. It might be the studio for WJLN but the transmitter site for WJLD and WJLN 1949. The station is still in the studios on Bessemer Super Highway at this time, until 1952 when it does move to Red Mountain. Photo was taken May 12, 1949 both of the tower and of the studio building. And these are again pictures taken from the library archives which were gotten from the tax assessor’s office and transferred to the library archives." 1940s Bessemer Bessemer Superhighway Red Mountain WJLD WJLN
