The KMSU Radio Collection consists of mainly issues of the program guides, the Monitor, and newsletters, Airwaves, distributed by the radio station beginning in the 1980s. These publications contain schedules and details of what is being broadcast. Until January 1989, the Monitor contained extensive writing and was very colorful. In February 1989 the format of the Monitor changed and it became larger but was all white with less writing and pictures.
