American Women Folios

American Women Making History and Culture (1963-1982) Folios

The goal of the Folio Preservation and Digitization Project is to make historic station program guides available to the public online, for research and other purposes.

The Folios, dating back to 1949, not only contextualize our audio collection, but they give a glimpse into the cultural, political and social concerns of their time.

Below is a sampling of Folios related to the American Women’s movement listed by station.
