Related to the work of the Newark Museum's educational loan collection was the establishment of several "branch museums" between 1929 and 1969. During this period, the staff created temporary displays for the benefit of residents who could not easily travel to the museum. Branches were installed in regional libraries, schools, and storefronts, utilizing objects lent from the collections. The program continued for over forty years, until the work of assembling portable exhibits was taken over by the Newark Museum's Educational Loan Dept.
