Description

Excerpt from New York State Museum: Forty-Fourth Annual Report of the Regents for the Year 1890 Since Dr. Merrill has already shown a deep and appreciative interest in the Museum, its plans, purposes and its future advance ment, he has naturally turned his attention to its present condi tion, both in the building upon State street, and to the location of departments in the State Hall and the Capitol. At the present time the Agricultural and Geological Hall on State street is the only available place for collections which are to be arranged for public exhibition. The building scarcely afi'ords accommodation for the officer in charge of the Museum and for the Assistant Zoologist. The State Botanist is located in a room in the State Hall, the State Entomologist has quarters in the Capitol, while the State Geologist and Assistant Palaeontologist, with the enormous collections in the latter department together with the draughtsmen occupy rooms in the upper story of the State Hal]. It is needless to comment upon the inconvenience coming from these distant and isolated locations, and the barrier it places to free intercourse and consultation among the members of the Museum staff. Nothing would more conduce to harmony and unanimity of purpose and action than the concentration of the Museum staff in a single well lighted and fire proof building, adapted to the wants of a scientific Museum in all its departments of natural history. But I need not dwell upon this aspect of the case; it has already been presented to your honorable body on many occasions.
