In response to Governor Murphy’s COVID-19 virus social distancing restrictions, and in consultation with the Office of Health Management the Heritage Commission Offices located at the Morris County Library re-opened on June 8, 2020 to staff only.

In-person research appointments, vendor visits, or assistance will not be accessible until further notice. Staff will be available by telephone and email to assist constituents.

For information during this challenging time, please visit the county’s coronavirus webpage.

The Morris County Heritage Commission is now on Facebook at facebook.com/MorrisCountyHeritageCommission. Make sure to like us!

Phase four of the move is nearly complete! Communications with our administrative staff may be briefly interrupted while we continue to settle into our new offices. The archival collection is now on site and is being reshelved and inventoried.   We will begin cleaning and evaluating the condition of the collection over the spring and summer months.

Appointments can be made by contacting the Commission offices at 973.829.8114 Tuesdays – Thursdays. We apologize for any inconvenience during this transition.

This notice will be withdrawn upon our return to normal operations.

Thank you for your patience.
