These last two plus a number of “Metric Idea Exchange” pamphlets which contain topical articles on the metric system are available from the ACES office at 800 Dixwell Ave. in New Haven. There are also numerous publishers and supply catalogs offering metric materials such as Education Supplements, 163 Westport Ave., Norwalk, Conn. 06851, and Enrich, 760 Kifer Rd., Sunnyvale, CA. 94086. I haven’t reviewed these materials.
Also, SNET Co. published a nice little metric conversion booklet but I’m not sure it’s still available.
