This book brings together 30 years of history at the University of Calgary campus, community radio station CJSW 90.9 FM. As the media landscape and consumer habits change, traditional radio will likely leave behind its terrestrial roots. This book grounds Calgary culture with the history of community radio, solidifying CJSWs role in building the burgeoning arts and culture industry in our city. There are 2500 copies of We Make Radio in circulation. Each was given away for free. They can be seen in local music venues, homes of CJSW supporters, and at the Calgary Public Library as a part of “Calgary’s Story” collection.
