After her retirement in 1971, she was granted emeritus status for her exemplary service. As registrar, she worked closely with College records and understood their value. From 1979 to 1994 Miss Boyd served as archivist, working doggedly to prevent the destruction and loss of College records. In addition, she encouraged many alumnae and other College friends to donate Wilson-related materials.
