- Abstract
- Pertains to the commissioner report on the events carried out by the Provincial Museum of Natural history and Anthropology, during the year of 1948. Published in 1949, the British Columbia Department of Education published the report in an effort to reflect on events from the previous calendar year. The objectives of the report were to secure and preserve specimens reflecting the natural history of British Columbia, collect anthropological material from Indigenous Peoples, and obtain information on natural sciences that could then be shared with the public. Each issue features a report from the director, biologist, and/or botanist, and/or anthropologist in which they would share their subsequent findings from the previous year. Topics discussed in each report include, but are not limited to the following; exhibitions, new accessions, staff changes, research, botany, entomology and relevant articles.
