Historique
The Royal Ontario Museum of Mineralogy was created in 1912 by Bill 138 in the Ontario Legislature. By-laws under that act allowed departments of the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) to be designated as the ‘Royal Ontario Museum of…’. The Museum of Mineralogy was one of the five museums making up the Royal Ontario Museum.
The ROM was controlled and managed by a Board of Trustees, with each department headed by a director. The first director of the Royal Ontario Museum of Mineralogy was Professor Thomas Leonard Walker. In 1955, the ROM was reorganized, and the separate museums became divisions, with the Museum of Mineralogy becoming the division of Geology and Mineralogy (later changed to the Life Sciences division.)
