The Royal Ontario Museum including the Main and Far Eastern Libraries. We are very pleased to be able to offer our membership a wonderful day at the spectacular and recently redesigned Royal Ontario Museum.

ROM Far Eastern Library Entrance
ROM Far Eastern Library Reading Room

Our hosts will be Arthur Smith, Head, Main Library and Archives and
Jack Howard, Librarian, H.H. Mu Far Eastern Library.

Our ROM colleagues will lead us through a tour of both library facilities and regale us with some juicy details of their ordeal through the “Renaissance”.

After the tours, our visitors’ badges will permit our general release into the entire Museum to browse whichever displays strike our fancy.

We can have lunch at the Museum’s Food Studio which sources organic seasonal ingredients from local Ontario food producers.
