MSS 96, PC 92

24 cm of textual records. --31 photographs.

Lionel Moore was an agricultural broadcaster and reporter. He started working in the field in 1944 and joined CBC Radio in 1950. He retired from this career in 1979. Moore worked closely with the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Manitoba and holds an honourary membership to the National Council of the Agricultural Institute of Canada.

This collection is comprised of three series. The first series, "Reports," contains scripts of reports Lionel Moore completed for the CBC as agricultural correspondent. The files are arranged chronologically and those with no specific date are filed last. The second series, "Scrapbooks," is made up of scrapbooks containing mostly clippings. The third series, "Photographs," is a photographic collection which has been separated and is now held as PC 92.

The Lionel Moore collection was given to the University of Manitoba Archives & Special Collections on 18 March 1993. The donor, Grant Taylor, was one of Mr. Moore's colleagues.
