Judi Stevenson carefully unpacks a bubble-wrapped wooden box. The worn box
is about the size of two decks of cards, and held together with the same
small metal clasps that have done the job for 100 years.

Stevenson, the district archivist for the Greater Victoria School District
61, lifts open the lid to reveal an old geometry kit compiled of fine metal
tools with ivory handles and an ivory ruler.

“This was donated from a school that was keeping it in a filing cabinet,
but it deserves to be taken care of,” Stevenson says.
