Jeff O’Brien carefully opens a Village of Saskatoon record book from the year 1903, the pages browned with age and filled with a severe cursive. The City of Saskatoon archivist handles the book delicately in the city archives’ main storage area, which he calls a space within a space. For security reasons, it’s a place members of the public rarely get to enter, except on a tour. If something goes missing, it’s gone and there’s no replacing it, he says. http://bit.ly/2ynOMMR http://bit.ly/2ynOMMR+ -- Peterk Dallas, Tx [log in to unmask] Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org “If only there were a massive entity that I were forced to fund to tell me how I should live my life, since I’m so obviously incapable of deciding for myself.” M.
