We do not have a lending resource center, although we have a very active
out reach program where our docents go to schools and bring items to the
class rooms. Send a message to our web operator at [log in to unmask]
and she will pass your questions onto Barbara Arvi.
You could also contact the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County.
The Dept. of Education has a very active lenders service and a children's
discover room. I am not sure of the Dept. of Ed. URL but the museum has a
very good web site and provides you with some of that information.
