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 Instruction Manual, Raytheon 1000 Watt AM Transmitter Model RA-1000 Description An account of the resource Box 2 Folder 4: "Alright this is folder 4. It is an instruction manual for a Raytheon 1000 watt AM transmitter, which we had here at WJLD. It was given away as a donation to a school, but it was the original transmitter when we went to 1000 watts. There is no indication of exactly how old this booklet is, but yes there is actually. There is a field service bulletin from May 3, 1950. It is a general bulletin to all users of this item, of this transmitter. So obviously the transmitter was built back in the early 50s or maybe even late 40s, but we didn’t go 1000 watts until later on in WJLD’s history (1960). We believe this is the manual, and it was found at the WJLD studios in the files." 1950s Raytheon Technical Manual WJLD
